LYRICS:
------
If I saw you now
Could I look in your eyes?
Do you think of me
Like I dream of you?
Do you wish you were here
Like I wish I was with you?
You've loved me before
Do you love me now?
-break-
Does love ever end
When two hearts are torn away?
Or does it go on
And beat strong anyway?
You've loved me before
Do you love me now?
Come back to me right now!
C'mon c'mon come back to me right now!
-break-
Come back to me right now!
C'mon c'mon come on!
You've loved me before
Do you love me now?
You've loved me before
Do you love me now?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
2-/-9 = slide from 2 UP to 9
( \ is of course slide DOWN)
(..) = didn't feel like typing the same thing over and over again
xxx = play strings muted
SOME NOTES:
The distorted guitar-part in figure 5 and 6 is a bit more complex than the
original version. That's because the Breeders use two guitars which play
basically the same chords. To get closer to the original, with only ONE
guitar, i've add some of the second guitar to this TAB, where the two
guitars differed.
I might have forgotten a part, or wrote untrue facts, but i've partly
put this together NOT listening to the music and NOT using my guitar.
Typo's or uncorrect English are also one of my specializations.
Don't bother okay.
I use this kind of noise while playing:
As much bass as my amp can handle, a bit more treble than usual, not too
much mids. The gain button at 4 or 5.
As you probably noticed, the Breeders' songs are very easy to play.
I only tried 'I Just Wanna Get Along', 'No Aloha', 'Do You
Love Me Now', 'Cannonball' and 'Divine Hammer' yet...
If you are interested in more Breeders tab's, just ask.
