Subject: Lyrics to THIS IS NOT LOVE

     I've been working on the lyrics and the music. I'll pass them along as
     I get them done. The lyrics are only what I hear from the Single CD
     and a tape of the album. So they may not be 100%. Corrections can be
     made when the album is released. I also have Truck Stop Runner which
     is not on the Single or Album, but will send the lyrics anyway. Here
     is This Is Not Love. I've printed the chords above the lyrics and by
     no means every little fingering that Ian or Martin uses. Martin does
     use the 5 chord a lot. This a major or minor triad with the 3rd
     removed. So play A5 with the bass A on the fifth fret, E on the 7th
     and A on the 7th. This is really an A minor. The C5, F5, G5, can be
     played as major chords.


                     THIS IS NOT LOVE

A5 E5 D5  C5 D5  A5 E5 D5  F5 G5   A5 E5 D5  C5 D5  A5 E5 D5  F5 G5

A5    E5    D5               C5 D5
Winds howled, rains spit down
A5       E5      D5                     F5 G5
All these nights playing precious games
A5      E5  D5                   C5 D5
Cheap hotel in some seaboat town
A5          E5      D5                         F5 G5
Closed down for the winter and whispered names

E                    F
Puppy dog waves on a big moon sea
G                  D
Snap our heels halfheartedly
C                 F           G
How come you know better than me
     Am              Em     Am               Em
That this is not love   No, this is not love


A5 E5 D5  C5 D5  A5 E5 D5  F5 G5
hum,                   Yea

A5    D5   E5                   C5 D5
Empty drugstore cold cut freeze
A5       D5        E5           F5 G5
Sunburst images of summers gone
A5         D5     E5                     C5 D5
Think I'll see us in these promenade days
A5        D5      E5            F5 G5
Before we learned of toper song

E                         F
Out on the headland when gale winds threap
G                   D
Curious headband to see
C                 F           G
How come you know better than me
     Am               Em    Am              Em  Am              Em
That this is not love   no, this is not love,   this is not love


F  G  Bb D    C  Gm  D   BbAb   Bb  G

C                 F           G
How come you know better than me
C                 F           G
How come you know better than me
C                 F           Eb
How come you know better than me
     Bb                G
That this is not love, this is not love


Am    Gb    Am   A5 E5 D5  C5 D5  A5 E5 D5  F5 G5
                                    Yea


A5          E5  D5                  C5  D5
Down to the sad south, smoky plumes
A5       E5   D5                  F5 G5
Mock the real world sitting home
A5     E5         D5           C5 D5
Broken spells and silent gloom
A5       E5         D5            F5 G5
Ooze from that concrete honeycomb

E                    F
Puppy dog waves on a big moon sea
G                   D
Snapped our heels half heartedly
C                 F           G
How come you know better than me
Am                   Em
That this is not love
    Am              Em
No, this is not love
Am               Em   F                 G
No, this is not love, this is not love, this is not love
         Am
This not love

Am Em Am Em Am Em F G Am Em Am Em Am Em F G Am
