Funny How Love Is
Fine Young Cannibals

Tuning: EADGBE

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
Em - Em/Eb - D - A/C# - C - B7 - Am - B7


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

Em           Em/Eb  D          A/C#
I'm going to places we used to go

C           B7     Am         B7
I still see people we used to know

Em           Em/Eb D             A/C#
Friends they ask me where is she now

  C       B7        Am         B7
I have to tell them we're over now


Refrain

G                 A/C#   C                  Am
When at first you left I thought I'd surely die

G                A/C#       C             B7
I couldn't see a future without you by my side

G           A/C#       C          Am
We're not together but I'm still alive

G              A/C#          C         B7
I'd rather not see you for a very long time

Em        Em/Eb    D         A/C#     C         B7      Am B7
Funny how love is, Funny how love is. Funny how love is

Verse 2
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/f/fine-young-cannibals/101033.html ]
Em                Em/Eb       D               A/C#
I don't want your magazines I don't want your clothes

C                 B7    Am         B7
Take them from my house let me be alone

Em              Em/Eb          D              A/C#
You ever try to catch me in or call me on the phone

C             B7        Am            B7
Don't send me letters I don't want to know


Refrain 2

G                 A/C#   C                  Am
When at first you left I thought I'd surely die

G                A/C#       C             B7
I couldn't see a future without you by my side

G           A/C#       C          Am
We're not together but I'm still alive

G              A/C#          C         B7
I'd rather not see you for a very long time


Outro - verse chord sequence

Em        Em/Eb    D         A/C#     C         B7      Am B7
Funny how love is, Funny how love is. Funny how love is

Em         Em/Eb      D                    A/C#   C         B7      Am B7

Em - Em/Eb - D - A/C# - C - B7 - Am - B7

Em

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