she had a lot of love to give, I was prepared to take it all
"And what did she do next?"

She had disrobed, and she was waiting on the floor.

i�m sure that i totally nailed the harmonies but of course i cant be 100% sure
that those are the exact chords played.... but it sounds pretty close to me... let
me know ehat you think... this is kinda one of my first tabs that i really posted
but ive been playing for like 12 years so im not one of those "this is my first
tab - please rate"-kids (which by the way almost always suck!!!)^^
