"Desperately"
Tabbed by: Angie B.

This is my first time every tabbing, but I really love this song!
I learned it from an acoustic version that she did for Sessions@AOL.

I don't know how to tab muting all the strings...so when I have
x's all the way down the strings...that's what I mean.  Sorry for
the funky notation on the chords.  I have no idea what the names of some of the
chords are so if anyone knows, please post the correction.

*what I mean by "or" is that sometimes the g string is hit instead of
the b string.  Listen to the song to hear when it is done.

Verse:
There's somethin' bout the way you looked at me.
Made me think for a moment, that maybe we were meant to be.
Livin our lives seperately.
And its strange that things change but not me wanting you so
desperately

Like your thinkin of lines and times when you and I were you and me
We took our chance out on the street
And we missed our chance and chances are....
