Biography:
The Teardrop Explodes was a British Post-punk/Neo-Psychedelic band formed in Liverpool in 1978. The band was formed by Julian Cope who had previously been in the short-lived yet locally-renowned band Crucial Three along with Pete Wylie (who went on to form Wah!) and Ian McCulloch later of Echo and the Bunnymen.
The band's initial line-up consisted of singer/bassist Julian Cope, Mick Finkler on guitar, Gary Dwyer on drums and Paul Simpson on keyboards.

[verse 1]
Em Am
Love has come to this House
Em Am
And my, my how we laughed
Em Am
Love has gone from this house
Em A (major)
And my, my how I cried
Em A (major
My, my how I cried
[chorus]
Em D Cmaj7 C
If I said I'd suffo-cate
G D Em (G D Em)
I see stars I see stars [oh yeah I'm sure the LSD were a big aid to you Jules]
Em D Cmaj7 C
I said I can't count on you
G D Em
You said come, come
[verse 2]
The sound that found It's way here
It came through stark and silent
Hold that sight in my head
But what seems cold so real, what seems cold so real
[choruses and outro]
There's a string arrangement around, search, find, listen and enjoy it.
