|note: this is not the exact FILL RIFF. when listening to the track, i |
| could not discern any of the playing, so i came up with this. it is |
| somewhat similar, however not the real riff, and fits in very well |
| with whatever else is going on at the time. you want the real thing, |
| do it yourself. |

CHORDS:

Am [MAIN RIFF]
you talk about your woman, i wish you could see mine
G D Am [TRANSITION RIFF]
you talk about your woman, i wish you could see mine
G [FILL RIFF] D E Am
every time she starts to love, she brings eyesight to the blind

you know her daddy gave her magic, i can tell by the way she walks
you know her daddy gave her magic, i can tell by the way she walks
every time she starts to shake, the dumb begin to talk

she's got the power to heal you, never fear
she has got the power to heal you, never fear
just one word from her lips and the deaf can hear

she's got the power to heal you, never fear
she has got the power to heal you, never fear
just one word from her lips and the deaf can hear

so i did one myself. if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, contact

if you have any beef with this tab, just throw it in the comments. i really DO read
just try not to call me an idiot. i don't like it when people put other people down.
