From that you can play the whole song.
In the absence of your love
And in the absence of human touch
I have decided
I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love
In the absence of your smiling face
I travel all over the place
And I have decided
I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love
I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love
I'm throwing my arms around Paris
Because nobody wants my love
Nobody wants my love
Nobody needs my love
Nobody wants my love
Yes, you made yourself plain
Yes, you made yourself very plain

This is the part Jesse Tobias plays on the electric guitar, with some distortion.
It is the same as above, except the individual arpeggio style picking is replaced by a
slide up the fret board.
If you can’t get it, watch the video on Youtube and you can see what happens:
G Am F Am

The chords played by Boz Boorer on the acoustic guitar are as follows, remember, capo on
fret.
The rhythm and timing is pretty simple really.
Verse:
G Am F Am X 3
G
“I have decided…”
Chorus:
C Am D7 F/ E7
“I’m throwing my arms around, around Paris,
Am C E F
Because, only stone and steel, accept my love”
In the absence of your love
And in the absence of human touch
I have decided
I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love
In the absence of your smiling face
I travel all over the place
And I have decided
I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love
I'm throwing my arms around, around Paris
Because only stone and steel accept my love
I'm throwing my arms around Paris
Because nobody wants my love
Nobody wants my love
Nobody needs my love
Nobody wants my love
Yes, you made yourself plain
Yes, you made yourself very plain
