<< Back to Frankie Goes to Hollywood Song List
Version 1 Version 3 Version 5The Power of Love - Frankie Goes to Hollywood My version of my favourite FGTH song, of course from 1984. Sometimes the words are sung on the beat (change of chord), sometimes just before the change, sometimes just after the change. I found it difficult to get the timing of the chords and words together until I wrote it out like this. Each chord section is a count of 4 except after the fourth 'make love..your goal' verse which has one count of two instead of four (which I have noted). I've tried to line the words up with the chord changes, including starting the word prior to the chord change or starting the word just after the change. Oh, and some words are the sounds - energeeeee instead of energy, spark-er-ling instead of sparkling... CAPO 1 (played very slowly!!)
