Is It Really So Strange?
	(Morrissey/Marr)


This is a pretty standard Smiths song. Of course Marr improvises a lot by
playing the E MajorE chord on the fourth fret while he has another guitar playing an
open E MajorE chord. A augmentedA note: When playing the E MajorE chord during the verses, to get
that one note drone, make sure you play the note G+G on the lower E MajorE string and
bend it (with your pinky) to give it that bluesy flavour.
