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
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
is strummed with fairly fast up-and-down strokes; the A is
basically just downstrokes. When the verse switches chords, play
the in the rhythm as the , the like the . Clear as mud?:-)
The ** in the chorus includes a run on the string.
Starting from the chord: 3, 2, 0, 0/2/3, with the last three
in quick succession. Other chords: = xx0211, = x4342x.
As the words are simple, they really need to be sung in the
right spirit - something between sombre and tortuous (?!).

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

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
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)
