Biografía:
The Pooh Sticks were an indie pop band, from Swansea, Wales recording between 1988 and 1995. They were notable for their jangly melodiousness and lyrics gently mocking the indie scene of the time such as on On Tape, Indie-pop ain't Noise Pollution and I Know Someone Who Knows Someone Who Knows Alan McGee Quite Well.
The band changed direction on their 1991 U.S breakthrough The Great White Wonder, eschewing the 'twee' British indie pop sound for a more American-styled Power Pop sound, akin to bands like Jellyfish and Redd Kross.

Verse 1:
|: G C :| X6
What kind of confusion,
Or distorted view,
is this strange fascination,
That draws me to you,
not one single atom,
Of me is still free,
Chorus: (But do you love, love me, like I love)
|: G E :| x2
G A
Verse 2:
The winter is drawing in,
But I continue to pray,
That you be the sunshine,
To brighten each cloudy day,
Neither myth nor legend,
Could hope to rival you,
Chorus X2
Solo over G, E X4
Chorus:
ends on an Am
I think most of the chords are right.
