Labour of Love  Frente!

LABOUR OF LOVE (Frente!)
 
 ------------------------

[Capo 2.] 
[Each chord is about one measure, or groups of chords joined by hyphens
are about one measure total.]
[I play Gsus9 as 300233.] 
[I've carefully notated the rhythm for the first verse at the end; that
should be easier to follow than the chords above the lyrics.]
[Em] [int[Em]ro] [Em] [Em]
[Em] Am I f[Gsus9]ooling you, do you [Asus]fall for it all, do you [A]just [-]see [Asus]right[-] t[A]hrough
[Em] Are you as c[Gsus9]ool as you beli[D]ev[-]e[Dsus] [-] [Dsus9] [Dsus9] [-] [Dsus] [-] [D]
[Em] Or are you [Gsus9]playing hard,[D] ar[-]e yo[Dsus]u wai[-]ti[D]ng just t[A]o quie[-]tly c[Asus]lock m[-]y c[A]ard
[Em] Are you [Gsus9]waiting for a moment to [D]lea[-]ve[Dsus9] [Dsus] [-] [D]
[A] [instr[A].] [-] [Dsus]
I don't know how I bent what you said to what I believe you meant
I don't know anything at all
I'm standing in the push and shove and I'm just within the rescue of the
labour of your love
I can't do anything but fall, fall, fall fall fall
[C] Why do I feel like I can [C]never find you
[D] Why do I feel like I'm the [D]only survivor
Em Em Gsus9 n.C.
Why am I thinking of you and me and the labour of love
One chance, one shot, that's all anybody ever got
Newborn, still warm, naked in the rush hour, dancing in my gutter
And if you want to find me, call me I'll be far from the cars and guitars
and everybody
Why do I feel like I can never find you
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor
Why am I thinking of you and me and the labour of love
[flute solo, same cbords as verse] 
And I never knew before, but I feel like a child in a cold cold war
So strong, so tough, sitting in suburbia waiting for the wind-up
And I don't wanna dance, I just wanna jump from the prison of circumstance
Why am I thinking of you and me and the labour of love
Why do I feel like I can never find you
Why do I feel like I'm the only survivor
Why am I thinking of you and me and the labour of love
[End witb 12tb-fret barmonics on D, G, B, and bigb E strings.] 
RHYTHM:
Hopefully, this should be self-explanatory. The slashes
are strums, the x's are...I don't know what they're called;
you know, when you stop the strings with your right hand.
The slashes with periods are staccato.
This is for the first verse; the rest of the verses are _almost_
identical.
