"Love You" by Syd Barrett from the album _The Madcap Laughs_
transcribed by Dave Fleming (dave@Glue.umd.edu)

For the intro I stick to E (or E7) shape barre chords. This is
a pretty simplistic approach on my part which, of course, I don't
think this is 100% right, so if you have any improvements, please
let me know:

Intro:

A 577655
B 799877

A7 575655
G7 353433
F#7 242322

A 577655
B 799877

E 022100


For the verses, I use the following forms,
A 577655
A# 688766
B 799877
E x79997

Verses:

A
Honey, love ya,
A#
Honey, little honey, funny, Sunday morning
B
Love you more funny, Love in the skyline baby.
E
Ice cream, 'scuse me,
A E
I've seen you looking good the other evening

Oh, you, dig it
Had to smile just an hour or so
Are we in love like I think we be?
It ain't a long rhyme, it took ages to think
I think I'll hurl it in the water, baby.

Repeat first verse

Flaking you are
A nice little one to put it all around
It's just good, I like it
Hey, hey, hey. Suppose some time that day
Whoopee, swing it on over across to me.

Repeat first verse

Good time rocker woman
Will stray, ah, pieces a little creepy
We shine so sleepy,
So whoopee
That's how you look

Repeat first verse
