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 (022000@1) Em/Eb D (xx0232@1) A/C#I'm (042220@1)going to places we used to go C (x32010@1) B7 (x21202@1) Am (x02210@1) B7I (x21202@1)still see people we used to know Em (022000@1) Em/Eb D (xx0232@1) A/C#Friends (042220@1)they ask me where is she now C (x32010@1) B7 (x21202@1) Am (x02210@1) B7I (x21202@1)have to tell them we're over now Refrain G (320003@1) A/C# (042220@1) C (x32010@1) AmWhen (x02210@1)at first you left I thought I'd surely die G (320003@1) A/C# (042220@1) C (x32010@1) B7I (x21202@1)couldn't see a future without you by my side G (320003@1) A/C# (042220@1) C (x32010@1) AmWe're (x02210@1)not together but I'm still alive G (320003@1) A/C# (042220@1) C (x32010@1) B7I'd (x21202@1)rather not see you for a very long time Em (022000@1) Em/Eb D (xx0232@1) A/C# (042220@1) C (x32010@1) B7 (x21202@1) AmB7 Funny how love is, Funny how love is.
