Biography:
Shannon and the Clams is an American indie garage punk quartet based in Oakland, California. Known for a vintage sound that incorporates elements of doo-wop, classic R&B, garage psych, and surf, the band has drawn comparisons to both Buddy Holly and 1960s girl groups.
Like a Beach Rock revival, Shannon and the Clams take you back to a time when Judy and Johnny were your favorite worst couple, with the help of some very heartbreaking background vocals and guitar riffs of which The Beatles would be proud.

Shannon and The Clams - Love Strike
[Intro]
G
Love strike
G
[Verse 1]
G B
There was a time where I was tried for love
C Cm
And somehow I start to glow, a feeling that I had let go
G B
There was a time where I was tried for love
C Cm
And once I turned away I had a long for you to stay
[Chorus]
G D
And if I asked to stay
C
One more night
D
One more day
[Interlude]
G
[Verse 2]
G B
There was a time where I was tried for love
C Cm
And then you walked on in and hurt to see you again
[Chorus]
G D
And if I asked to stay
C
One more night
D
One more day
G D
If I had to turn that plane around
C
Cause I need your love around
D
You'd say
[Outro
G
(Love strike) Oh you're saying
B7
(Love strike) Oh I need it
Em D
(Love strike) Oh we lost our way
G
(Love strike) I can feel it
B7
(Love strike) Oh I need it
Em D
(Love strike) Oh we lost our way
G
(Love strike) I can feel it
B7
(Love strike) Lord I need it
Em D
(Love strike) Oh we lost our way
Ad-lib until fade out
