My Love Is You

Written by David Byrne

	  		i like david byrne and i assume you do as well. 
this song is pretty east to play.  its just basic chords with a few little licks  
intermittently.  listen for the timing. 


intro: 
D9 | B7 |: 
D7 | D9 | F#m | B7 | 
B7 | A | B7 | E |: 


D9                B7 
Some men desire a princess 
    D9                B7 
And others lust for a temptress 
     D7      D9          F#m   B7 
Well I don't need one of those cause, 
B7  A   B7  E 
My love is you 
B7  A   B7  E 
My love is you 

D9                     B7 
Some men replace their mamas 
    D9                   B7 
And some want a young baiana 
D7     D9         F#m   B7 
I have no use for those cause, 
B7  A   B7  E 
My love is you 
B7  A   B7  E 
My love is you 

Bm 
Sometimes dear 
    F#7 
You tell me I'm an asshole 
G                                Em | E 
Sometimes you're an asshole too 
Bm 
Even though we're 
F#7 
Filled with imperfections 
  G                            B | E 
I don't think any less of you 


(Repeat intro) 

D9                B7 
I'm primitive and selfish 
    D9                B7 
I'm childlike and I'm helpless 
      D7    D9         B7 
Well, I got that way because of 
B7  A   B7   E 
My love for you 
B7  A   B7  E 
My love is you 
B7  A   B7  E 
My love is you
