She Makes Me (crd) — Queen

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 (?!).

1

I love, she makes me She is my heart she is my love She is my love

2

I know, I`m jealous of her She makes me need, she is my love She is my love

Chorus:

A E A D** Who knows who`ll she make me, as I lie in her cocoon? And the world will surely heal my ills I`m warm and terrified, she makes me so

3

I know, the day I leave her I`ll love her still, she is my love she is my love

Chorus Music:

Who knows where my dreams will end I`ll follow as they go But the world will know how long I take And if I`m very slow, she makes me so.

She is my love She is my love (ad lib, fade)
