Spectre Of Love
The Stranglers
{Verse 1} I never knew what made me do it I just remember it was wrong I’ve questioned why I put you through it Who would have thought you’d be so strong? {Bridge 1} G Am (Riff 1) I should have wrapped you up and kept you safe Instead I turned my back on you {Chorus 1} You can’t deny there’s a spectre of love He keeps a hawk and dove You can’t deny there’s a spectre of love {Verse 2} I keep your picture by my window You’re smiling and you look so young If I could only speak your language You’d know that you’re the only one {Bridge 2} G Am (Riff 1) I feel I’m stepping out in dead man’s shoes And only you can save me now {Chorus 2 (without Riff 2)} You can’t deny there’s a spectre of love He keeps a hawk and dove You can’t deny there’s a spectre of love {Middle section} And if the time should come This can be undone - and I swear it Guitar solo to chords of chorus (4 times) {Bridge 3} G Am (Riff 1) Salvation can be found in times like these I just need you and I’ve found mine {Chorus 3} You can’t deny there’s a spectre of love He keeps a hawk and dove You can’t deny there’s a spectre of love He keeps a hawk and dove You can’t deny there’s a spectre of love Chorus as above then Riff 2 two and half times to finish with: [For the riffs below these are the notes not the chords] [Riff 1 notes: -------] [Riff 2 notes: ------- | --------]
