Oh No Not Susan Chords

   
I have always thought this was one of ELO's best hidden gems. So hauntingly 
melancholy and sad, but so beautiful at the same time. I figured the chords out 
years ago and forgot to put them online until now. No one had ever tried to figure 
this song out and put it online and it's a shame because it's so good. Hope you 
enjoy playing this one as much as I did! -Will Willer

             OH NO NOT SUSAN
             ---------------
(I suggest listening to the song to make sure your tuning is accurate)

G+         Em             Am          D
Susan spent the weekend at her stately home
G       Em           Am         D
Crying at the lions on the garden wall
    B7         Em           C
And then she'd sigh -- sneak away
            Em             C
Look at her style -- free the day

C   G   Em
Oh no not me -- I wouldn't
C   G       Em
Oh no not me -- I couldn't
Am        D     Am        D            Am
That's all she says, her money and her place
Am              D     B7       Em - - -D - -C - - G
They just don't mean a fucking thing *strings playing melody untill next verse*

G       Em                 Am         D
Susan met the Lords and Dukes of everywhere
G         Em                  Am         D
Smiling kissing wishing that they'd go to hell
    B7         Em             C
And then she'd laugh -- wonder why
       Em            C
Take a nap -- sit and cry
          G       Em
Oh no not me -- I wouldn't
  G       Em
Oh no not me -- I couldn't
Am        D    Am         D            Am     
That's all she says, her money and her place
Am              D      B7 Em - - -D - -C - -G
They just don't mean a fucking thing
