“The Power” by Suede written by Brett Anderson & Bernard Butler
Capo 1st fret; all chords relative to capo. I hate tuning my guitar 1/2
step down for playing suede songs so I rather put a capo on it and that's
it. This is nice for an acoustic version. Enjoy!
G D Am Em
Through endless Asia, through the fields in Cathay
G D Am Em
or enslaved in a pebble-dash grave with a kid on the way
G D Am Em
If you're far over Africa on the wings of youth
G D Am Em
or if you're down in some satellite town and there's nothing you can do
C D
Just give me, give me, give me the power
Bm Em
And I'll make them believe
C D
Give me, give me, give me the power
Eb D
Although I'm just the common breed
G D Am Em
You might live in a screen kiss, it's a glamorous dream
G D Am Em
Or belong to a world that's gone, it's the English disease
C D
But give me, give me, give me the power
Bm Em
And I'll make them believe
C D
Give me, give me, give me the power
Eb D
Although I'm just the common breed
Eb D
Eb F#

Eb D
(I play the bridge this way, remember all notes relative to capo)

Just give me, give me, give me the power

And I'll make them believe

Give me, give me, give me the power
Bm Em
And I'll make them bleed
C D Bm Em (fading pattern)
---One of my favourite songs from one of my all-time greatest albums.
