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 D A
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 D
is strummed with fairly fast up—and—down strokes; the A is
basically just downstrokes.  When the verse switches chords, play
the C in the rhythm as the A, the G like the D.  Clear as mud?:—)
     The D** in the chorus includes a run on the B string.
Starting from the D chord:  3, 2, 0, 0/2/3, with the last three
in quick succession.  Other chords:  Dm7 = xx0211, C#7 = x4342x.
     As the words are simple, they really need to be sung in the
right spirit — something between sombre and tortuous (?!).

(Slowly)

 I know,       I'm jealous of her

[Chorus:]

     A         E           A            D**
     Who knows who'll she make me, as I lie in her cocoon?
             A          C#7    F#m     B7
     And the world will surely heal my ills
         D                                A
     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
          A    E7
she is my love

[Chorus music:]
     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.
