Funny How Love Is

Funny How Love Is

Fine Young Cannibals

A beautiful song, played to a bossa nova rhythm on the recording. Sounds lovely in its'

incarnation, even with the reverb drenched 80's production, and stays just as strong on

solo acoustic guitar. Bliss!

The timing is a cinch, one bar per chord change

Introduction

Verse 1 (the verse chord sequence is the same as the intro)

I'm going to places we used to go

I still see people we used to know

Friends they ask me where is she now

I have to tell them we're over now

Refrain

When at first you left I thought I'd surely die

I couldn't see a future without you by my side

We're not together but I'm still alive

I'd rather not see you for a very long time

Funny how love is, Funny how love is. Funny how love is

Sax break over verse sequence, play once

Verse 2

I don't want your magazines I don't want your clothes

Take them from my house let me be alone

You ever try to catch me in or call me on the phone

Don't send me letters I don't want to know

Refrain 2

When at first you left I thought I'd surely die

I couldn't see a future without you by my side

We're not together but I'm still alive

I'd rather not see you for a very long time

Outro - verse chord sequence

Funny how love is, Funny how love is. Funny how love is

Love is so funny, you sure put the joke on me Funny how love is

It doesn't get much better than this song. I hope I've done it justice!
