SHE MAKES ME (Stormtropper in Stilettoes)
[Brian May/Queen.  from the albumn _Sheer Heart Attack_.]

     I find that the secret to this tune is getting the D A
changes for the verses and intro right.  Very difficult to write
out for someone who knows zip about rhythm theory; this is an
approximation, not a subsitute for learning by listening.  The D
is strummed with fairly fast up-and-down strokes; the A is
basically just downstrokes.  When the verse switches chords, play
the C in the rhythm as the A, the G like the D.  Clear as mud?:-)
     The D** in the chorus includes a run on the B string.
Starting from the D chord:  3, 2, 0, 0/2/3, with the last three
in quick succession.  Other chords:  Dm7 = xx0211, C#7 = x4342x.
     As the words are simple, they really need to be sung in the
right spirit - something between sombre and tortuous (?!).

(Slowly)

[Chorus music:]
     Who knows where my dreams will end

     But the world will know how long I take
     And if I'm very slow, she makes me so.
