Funny How Love Is
Fine Young Cannibals
Tuning: EADGBE
A beautiful song, played to a bossa nova rhythm on the recording. Sounds lovely in its'
incarnation, even with the reverb drenched 80's production, and stays just as strong on
solo acoustic guitar. Bliss!
The timing is a cinch, one bar per chord change
