By Love & Theft
Originally by John Waite
The intro riff is just a D chord with a hammer on with your pinky on the 3rd fret E string.
Listen to the song for the timing. I fell in love with this song when I heard John Waite play
it. It's going to be a HUGE hit for Love & Theft, I would have loved to see it be a hit for
John. Enjoy. Feel free to send in any corrections. I am pretty sure it is correct.
