Morrissey

Morrissey - My Life Love guitar tab

#

From: Stark

This is how I play Morrissey's My Love Life, the KROQ live version at

least. The studio version skips the part guitar I plays in the intro,

and goes straight into the main riff. On the version Alain Whyte and co.

play live, the main riff is played alot more freely (strummed more).

I realize there are a lot of inaccuracies in my tab, but I just

tried to produce a rough sketch. I would appreciate it if anybody

could mail me, or post, corrections.

Here's the song:

Intro times 4

Repeat main riff until chorus

come on to my house

come on and do something new

I know you love, one person

but why can't you love two?

(chorus)

E G D C D

give a little something

E G D *C D * note: pick with first three strings

give a little something and slide chords

(main riff)

to my love life

my love life

my love life

oh..

I know you love one person

why don't you love two?

etc...

=========================================================================

Someone else please post more Smiths/Morrissey, Pixies, J&M Chain,

Sex Pistols, Lush, or anything else slightly "alternative", that

guitar magazines fail to comprehend.

Good night, and thank you,
