Subject: CHOPROL: Peter Gabriel: "Modern Love"

This is from Peter Gabriel's first self-titled album from about '77.
I've always really liked this up tempo, pop song.

The intro might be a little off, but it's pretty close.  It's hard to
pick out exactly what it is through the two guitars and distortion.

        Ben.

FHey I'm feeling so Amdirty, you're looking so Gclean
FAll you can give me is a Amspin in your washing Gmachine
FI fly off to Rome to my Dmprima bella
FShe leaves me in the rain with a Dmtelescopic umbrella

I trusted my venus was untouched in her shell
But the pearls in her system were as tacky as hell
For Lady Godiva I came incognito
But her driver had stolen her red hot magneto

{C: Chorus}
{C: Bridge:}
A   E
EI don't know why they leave me in the C#mlurch
To carry on the Csearch
It's driving me Dup the wall
EWhen I have so much C#mpassion
Romance is out of Cfashion
I can't handle DModern love at all

{c: Intro, twice}

So I worship Diana by the light of the moon
When I pull out my pipe she screams out of tune
In Paris my heart sinks when I see the Mona Lisa
She gives me the wink, then shows me the freezer

{c: Chorus, twice}
