Too Much Love Will Kill You Brian May
Note this!: I did not make these chords. I just wanted to post them on this site.
Introduction :
The intro to this song is relatively easy, but is one of my favorites. If you can master
sequences between the chords, you will be set.
The intro starts with Brian using a multitracked set of ooooh's then the piano starts.
you see the * symbol, it indicates a type of arpeggio on G used in the intro. You will
elements of the intro used throughout the song.

- Play the Introduction again -
Verse 3 : use the same chords and timings as Verse 1
I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine, now all I ever do is bring you down
Verse 4 : use the same chords and timings as Verse 2
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it, every way I go I have to
lose.
Chorus : use the same chords and timings as Chorus above
Too much love will kill you, just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you, make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy. you're the victim of your crimes
Too much love, will kill you, every time.
