Lily Allen - The Fear
------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Laurence Wilson 15.07.09

Tuning: E A D G B e
Capo: 1st Fret

Apparently, there's a 'correct' live acoustic version of this song. This
isn't it. This is my take on the song, how I play it. I think it fits
the recorded version a little better than the other tabs I've checked
out. The Asus2 chords in brackets mimic the vocal harmony and aren't
entirely necessary.

Intro: E E7 A Am

           E7                      A
I wanna be rich and I want lots of money
                   Am                         E
I don't care about clever, I don't care about funny
                E7                          A
I want loads of clothes and I want loads of diamonds
               Am                          E
I heard people die while they're trying to find them
                 E7                         A
And I'll take my clothes off and it will be shameless
              Am                       E
'cos everyone knows that's how you get famous
                 E7                       A
I'll look at The Sun and I'll look in The Mirror
                 Am                     E
I'm on the right track, yeah I'm onto a winner

        C#m7                         Abm                  E
I don't know what's right and what's real anymore
            C#m7                  D6sus2 (Asus2) E
And I don't know how I'm meant to feel anymore
            C#m7                     Abm    E
When do you think it will all become clear?
               C#m7          D6sus2 (Asus2)
'cos I'm being taken over by the fear

Life's about film stars and less about mothers
It's all about fast cars and cussing each other
But it doesn't matter 'cos I'm packing plastic
And that's what makes my life so fucking fantastic
And I am a weapon of massive consumption
And it's not my fault, it's how I'm programmed to function
I'll look at The Sun and I'll look in The Mirror
I'm on the right track, yeah we're onto a winner

I don't know what's right and what's real anymore
And I don't know how I'm meant to feel anymore
When do you think it will all become clear?
'cos I'm being taken over by the fear

Forget about guns and forget ammunition
'cos I'm killin' them all on my own little mission
Now I'm not a saint but I'm not a sinner
Now everything's cool as long as I'm getting thinner

I don't know what's right and what's real anymore
And I don't know how I'm meant to feel anymore
When do you think it will all become clear?
'cos I'm being taken over by the fear
