then it goes back to the "i love you" part.


the rythym is a bit hard at first, and to sing while playing it is very hard.

if you have a second guitar player or bass, single notes or power chords can
be played like this:

guitar 1    B
guitar 2(bass)  B

guitar 1    B6
guitar 2    G#

guitar 1   B
guitar 2   F#

guitar 1   B4
guitar 2   E

that's it!  good luck!
