NO NEED TO ARGUE By D. O'Riordan NOTE:This song is just vocals and organ, But here's the chords anyway.
|C|(C)|F|G|C| Theres no need to argue anymore I gave all I could but you left me so sore And the thing that makes me mad Is the one thing that I had Cause I knew, I knew I'd loose you You'll always be special to me Special to me, to me An I remember all the things we once shared Watching TV movies on a living room armchair They said it'll work out fine Was it all a waste of time Cause I knew, I knew I'd loose you You'll always be special to me Special to me, to me Will I forget in time You said I was on your mind There's no need to argue No need to argue anymore There's no need to argue anymore
