These are the basic chords for the great Rusty Cage beautiful song "This is Not a Love Song" found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIFbf7HWKd0 Tuning: standard [EADGBe] Capo 1 [Intro] C E Am F G x2 [Verse 1] C E It's true that sometimes intuition ties the blinding folds Am F G To contemplate not what, but why the way the mind can go C E Sometimes it plays the heart, it's so lovely at the start Am F G But when the walls come crashing down I take it all apart C E Arise my jaded cynicism, analyzing criticism Am F G Every thought so skeptical, no mysteries are left at all C E No silly romance fantasies are really how they're hoped to be Am F G C No this is not a song of love, just so damn reminiscent of it all [Chorus] Am F G C Whoow, intention. When you leave these things behind, I can't open up my mind at all Am F Fm Whoow, intention. Well I know, I know that love ain't real but I can't deny the way I feel C G Am E F I'd like to say I'll find the day when no more will I feel this way, and if I never, very well G C G Am E But only tests of time can tell. Indulge the moment and then it's gone, but never for too very long F G C No this is not a song of love just so damn reminiscent of it all [Fill] G C F* *-strum once [Verse 2] C E The fight to strive, genetic drive, those early days of man Am F G Replication and survive, to act not understand C E For every lost potential mother kills you from within, Am F G for fear of life's own preservation starts to settle in C E Well I know it gets confusing and I know it's worth a try Am F G When instinct tells you how to act but just won't tell you why C E As single souls are drawn together, passionate and blind Am -once, then mute strum F G C Just keep this simple thought in mind, that love is just a concept for the times. [Repeat Chorus] [Bridge] Am F G C Am F G C Woe and blight, such is life. Though excel for all is well [Ending] Am F G C Whoow, intention. When you leave these things behind, I can't open up my mind at all Am F -once Fm -once C -once Whoow, intention. Well, no this is not a song of love just so damn reminiscent of it all
