Colin Newman

Biography:

Newman is a member of the art rock band, Wire. When the band temporarily split in 1980, Newman pursued a solo career. His first solo LP, A-Z, was released in 1980 on the Beggar's Banquet label. The album veered from extremely skewed pop to more mainstream numbers, such as "Order for Order", which was compared by some to Gary Numan. A track from the demos for this LP (featured on CD versions but not included on the original vinyl release), "Not Me"

[Verse 1]
Bm A G
Alone, alone,

Bm A G
with too much generosity

Bm A G
A theatre mask

Bm A G
of hostility attracts


[Bridge]
F# G A Bm
Assaults occur, unfrequently

A G
And those who come, to conquer

G
Need strength

F# G
The damage accumulates


[Verse 2]
A Bm A G
Still moving him to tears

Bm A G
Retained a sense of humour

Bm A G
Retained a sense of humour

The last line repeats a few times then
switches to Colin singing “Ooos.”

During the Bridge I think the bass notes of the Main Riff are
changed to reflect the chord progression during the Bridge.
