Chords

An obscure song written by Ed Robertson for the country singer John Berry. It has seldom been played live, but it is a favorite among hardcore fans. I determined these chords by watching the "Bathroom Sessions" version. The chords are played as follows: G: 320033 D/F#: 200233 Em7: 022033 Cadd9: x32033 Bm: 224432 Am: 002210 D/F#: 2x0232 F: 133211 [Intro] G D/F# Cadd9 Cadd9 D/F# (x2) [Verse 1]
G                 D/F#           Em7
There's something in her smile,

         Cadd9        D/F#  G
Everyone loves so much.

(G)       D/F#             Em7
No matter what she wears,

             Cadd9   D/F#
Looks like a million bucks.
[Chorus]
Bm      Cadd9
A woman so graceful,

Am  G        D/F#
   So much in love.

G        D/F#         Cadd9  Cadd9  D/F#  G
He makes me want her again.
[Verse 2]
G             D/F#           Em7
She's made it all work out,

               Cadd9   D/F#  G
The way it was meant to be.

G                 D/F#           Em7
The trouble with doing that,

            Cadd9        D/F#  
Is not too inapt with me.
[Chorus]
Bm             Cadd9
   He makes her happy,

Am G            D/F#
   He makes her whole.

G              D/F#       Cadd9   Cadd9  D/F#
   He makes me want her again.
[Bridge 1]
Em7    D/F#   G
   Whatever he's made of,

Cadd9  D/F#     G
   Makes her so sure.

Cadd9          G                Am      G        F
  He makes the dream I have for us come true for her.
[Verse 3]
G           D/F#           Em7
She's such a perfect mom,

                 Cadd9        D/F#  G
The boy's almost half her size.

(G)          D/F#             Em7
He thinks he looks like her,

                Cadd9      D/F#
But I know he's got my eyes.
[Chorus]
Bm          Cadd9
He is an angel,

Am     G            D/F#  
   But he breaks my heart.

G                  D/F#      Cadd9 Cadd9 D/F#
'Cause he makes me want her again.
[Bridge 2]
Em7    D/F#   G
   Whatever he's made of,

Cadd9  D/F#     G
   Makes her so sure.

Cadd9          G                Am      G        F
  He makes the dream I have for us come true for her.
[Chorus]
Bm             Cadd9
   He makes her happy,

Am      G            D/F#  
   But he breaks my heart.

G              D/F#       Cadd9  D/F#  G
   He makes me want her again.
