From: The Standard Q
Subject: "Love --> Building on Fire" by Talking Heads

opening guitar/bass i just notes on the d string (or e).

D G D G
when my love stands next to your love,

D G D G
I can't compare love when it's not love.

D G D G
It's not love; It's not love

D G D G
Which is my face, which is a building,

(the chords start here)

D G
which is on fire

D G
on fire.


so the whole song is just D for one measure and G for the next. It
changes at the instrumental with the horns before "I got two loves"

|: F C C G :|
Which is on fire

then it instantly goes back to D and G until the final chord which is a
D. it sounds cool if, after the instrumental you strum the D chord with
long strums while you strum the G chord withfour staccato quarter note
hits.

have fun.
