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
