SPLIT ENZ - "poor boy" Tablature

Another great Enz song. Works OK on the guitar but sounds better on the
piano.
Enjoy,

Transcribed by John Kean (keanj@agresearch.cri.nz).


INTRO:
B

VERSE 1:
Em D Bm7 Am
My love is alien, I picked her up by chance
C D A Em
She speaks to me with ultra-high frequency
Em D Bm7 Am
A radio band of gold, gonna listen 'til I grow old
C
Ooh hoo hoo
Em
What more can a poor boy...

CHORUS:
Am D G E

VERSE 2:
The crackle of the radio, a message in the evening sky
You're looking at an interplanetary Romeo
I'll never see her face - between us there's too much space
Ooh hoo hoo
What more can a poor boy...

CHORUS (as before)

SOLO:
Em D Bm7 Am (x4, then) C Em

OUTRO: (Ad lib lyrics from chorus)
Am D G E (x8, then) C Em
