"It's because I love you"
by Master's Apprentices

This is a pretty good outline of the different parts to this old song.
Any corrections and especially the rest of the lyrics are welcome.

These tabs a for a six string, but playing them on a twelve string would make ita hell of a lot easier.

There are 3 main riffs and an easy set of chorus chords:

riff 1 riff 2
|--------------|------------------------|
|--10-9--7--5--|------------------------|
|--------------|------------------------|
|--7--6--4--2--|---5--4--5--7--5--4--5--|
|--------------|------------------------|
|--------------|------------------------|


Main riff/verse riff: (takes a while to get used to the fingering)
A B C# E C# B A
|--------------------------12----------------------------|
|--10-10-12-12-14-14-14-14----14-14-12-12-10-10-10-10----|
|--------------------------9-----------------------------|
|--7--7--9--9--11-11-11-11----11-11-9--9--7--7--7--7-----|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|


just before
the chorus
play this note
twice then go
straight into
the A chord Chourus chords:
C# A B D A A6? (not sure, could be called Asus)
|-----------|--------------2-------------|
|-----------|--2-----------3-----2---3---|
|--6--6-----|--2-----4-----2-----2---2---|
|-----------|--2-----4-----------2---2---|
|-----------|--------2-------------------|
