Great song, good tab man. Just a couple of chords I'm not happy with, the Em add2 you have in the intro I play as 044000 (Em 6/9 or some such similar name) and the G/A I play as x0000x (a lot easier then to just fret and unfret the A in that sequence), but those just my opinions, You pays your money and takes your choice. Cheers folks, spread the Love.

Hi, agreed, and I realized this afterwards not by listening to Love's version where it really isn't that clear, but listening to Bryan Maclean's acoustic version of the song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmkME3Hu62U) where it is quite clear that you have the lyric correctly. My apologies. BD
