Biography:
The Beat, known in the United States as The English Beat (and the British Beat in Australia and New Zealand) in order to avoid confusion with Paul Collins' band of the same name, was a popular Two Tone ska and pop music group. Formed in the English city of Birmingham in 1978, The Beat disbanded in 1983, but has reformed in the early 2000s with some of the original line-up.
One of the more popular and enduring groups of a short-lived trend, The Beat released three albums: "I Just Can't Stop It" (1980)

..Just out of spite
Cmaj7 D7 Cmaj7
I confess I've ruined three lives
Cmaj7 D7
Now don't sleep so tight

Because I didn't care till I found out that one of them was mine
Cmaj7 D7 Cmaj7
Night after night time time after time
Cmaj7 D7 Cmaj7
Done too much of both types of whining
Cmaj7 D7 Cmaj7

"No it's not a joke it's cards on the table time
Cmaj7
When I could have phoned, I could have spoke

But how to break the news without beaking your heart
D7 Cmaj7
Being dead don't hurt, No only dying
D7
Cards on the table time
Cmaj7 D7
Sometimes it's right to say goodnight."
