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.

[F]Hey I'm feeling so [Am]dirty, you're looking so [G]clean

[F]All you can give me is a [Am]spin in your washing [G]machine

[F]I fly off to Rome to my [Dm]prima bella

[F]She leaves me in the rain with a [Dm]telescopic umbrella

[C]Ooh the pain [C] [G] [F] -- [C]Modern love can be a strain [C] [G] [Bb] [F]

[C]Ooh the pain [C] [G] [F] -- [C]Modern love can be a strain [C] [G] [Bb] [F]

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]

[E]I don't know why they leave me in the [C#m]lurch

To carry on the [C]search

It's driving me [D]up the wall

[E]When I have so much [C#m]passion

Romance is out of [C]fashion

I can't handle [D]Modern 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}

{sot}
