PETER GABRIEL - "modern love" Tablature
Official PETER GABRIEL Tablature & Sheet Music »
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

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}

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official PETER GABRIEL tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
