WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Teardrop Explodes - Like Leila Khaled Said Ukulele | Ver. 1
Written by Julian cope for the Album 'Wilder'.
Please note that the lyrics may be incorrect, since I focused on getting the right
chords and I couldn't rely on the live versions, where the lyrics where different.
Main riff, played during the intro, the verses and the pre-choruses:
Dm Dm C
D|-x-x-7-7-x-x-7-7-x-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|
E|-x-x-8-8-x-x-8-8-x-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
C|-x-x-9-9-x-x-9-9-x-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
C|-x-x-9-9-x-x-9-9-x-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
D|-x-x-7-7-x-x-7-7-x-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|
E|---------------------------------|
If you can get hold of the riff and listen to the song closely, you can play most of the song.
Dm C
You can smother me with kisses
Dm C
You can smother me with dreams
Dm C
You can always be the mistress of my schemes
Dm C

But the sound is a very special thing

It can see you standing naked
Dm C
In a drawer
pre-chorus:
Dm C
But another ship could find you

Another ship could find you
