Biography:
The Jesus and Mary Chain are a chaotic, noisy indie quartet formed in Scotland, blending the Beach Boys' sunny pop with the Velvet Underground's black-leather cool. Brothers Jim Reid and William Reid, from East Kilbride, Glasgow, Scotland were the primary songwriters. "The JAMC" released a constant string of albums, singles and EPs until their demise in 1998. Having influenced many post-punk and noise rock bands, the group finally reunited in 2007.

A D
When she walks towards me I feel something
E A
Crawl beneath my skin
D
And all the electric stars are shining
E
Beneath my skin and
(chorus)
D
Cherry takes me to the place above
A(V)
With barbed wire kisses and her love
D
We're going where the ocean's blue
B D E
Kick the dust and you can come too
(repeat verse chords)
In the light of all my darkest moments
Things fall into place
And all the soft dark coloured awnings
Fall into place and
(chorus)
Cherry's scratching like a grain of sand
The trigger itch in the killer's hand
Me and Cherry are so extreme
Making love to the sound of a scream
A
Oh Cherry honey you got me stuck on a rope
You got me running around
D
With the fear in my head for you
E A
And I want you
A D
And I'll give you my head
E A
And all the things it said
D
And I'd give you my thoughts
E A
If those things weren't lost
D
And I'll give you my soul
E A
To beat it with your pole
(solo)
A D E (repeat 4 times)
(same chord pattern as previous part)
I'm gonna give you my head
You could kick it dead
And I'll give you my head
Come on and kick me dead
Come on and push me down
Come on and drag me down
Oh and Cherry be bad
Come on and kiss my head
