Structure

EP Intro
1x Whole band

V1
Before you go pointing the finger
Maybe you should check yourself out
Your past is wide open to question
Your future is clouded in doubt


Before you go pointing the finger
Maybe you should stand back and think
Are you gonna be making a difference
Or are you gonna be making a stink

Piano Solo x2

(I said) Before you go pointing the finger
Maybe you should stand back and ask
Are you really up to the challenge
Do you feel you’re facing the task

Before you go pointing the finger
Maybe you should know what it means
Have you always been mister blameless
Have you always kept your hands clean

Guitar Solo x1 (x2 live)

v3
Before you go pointing the finger
Maybe you should see if it’s wise
Would you pass a vigorous inspection
Or be cut down to size

Before you go pointing the finger
Maybe you should stand back and think
Are you gonna be making a difference
Or are you gonna be making a stink

Hammond solo x1 (x2 live)

V4
Before you go…
Before you go pointing the finger, babe
Just check yourself out
Check yourself out.

Before you go…
Before you go pointing the finger
Just see…?? yourself
See if it's wise. No Surprise.

Before you go pointing that finger…

Guitar solo x1 (not when live)
