So Cruel	(from the album "Achtung, Baby")
--------	  (Page 28, Propaganda #16)
     
We crossed the line
A                         Asus4

Who pushed who over?
A                         Asus4

It doesn't matter to you         it
A                         Asus4

matters to me
A                         Asus4
     
We're cut adrift
A                         Asus4
     
But still floating
A                         Asus4
     
I'm only hanging on
A                
     
To watch you go down...my love
                E
     
I disappeared in you
A                         Asus4

You disappeared from me
A                         Asus4

I gave you everything you ever wanted
A                                   Asus4

It wasn't what you wanted
          A                         Asus4
     
The men who love you, you hate the most
A                                   Asus4

They pass through you like a ghost
A                                   Asus4

They look for you but your spirit is in the air
A                              Asus4           E

Baby...you're nowhere
              A                Asus4

You say in love there are no rules

You're so cruel
          A
     
Desparation is a tender trap
A                          Asus4

It gets you every time
A                          Asus4

You put your lips to her lips
A                          Asus4

To stop the lie
   A                       Asus4
     
Her skin is pale like God's only dove
A                                     Asus4

Screams like an angel for your love
A                                     Asus4

Then she makes you watch her from above
A                                     E

And you need her like a drug
                         A

You say in love there are no rules
A          D          E      A

Oh......love  Sweetheart
  D  E     A       E

You're so cruel
          A
     
She wears my love
F#m        

Like a see-through dress
       D

Her lips say one thing
A

Her movements something else
    E

Oh love
   C#m

Like a screaming flower
Love
Dying every hour
            A
     
And you don't know if it's fear or desire
A                Asus4     A          Asus4

Danger the drug that takes you higher?
A                                  Asus4

Head of heaven
A

Fingers in the mire
      Asus4      A
     
Her heart is racing... you can't keep up
A                                          Asus4

The night is bleeding like a cut
A                                          Asus4

Between the horses of love and lust
A                                 Asus4

We are trampled underfoot     
       E                  
    
     
You say in love there are no rules
A          D          E      A

Oh......love  Sweetheart
  D  E     A       E

You're so cruel
          A
     
To stay with you I'd be a fool
             D      E      A

oh....hah           hah   Sweetheart
   D      C#m       A   E
 
You're so cruel.
          A
