version 6
Legend:
h-hammer on, p-pull off, /-slide to, hb-half-bend(you just strike that note and push it
while its vibrating (direction to the ceiling to get the 9 note, it makes the sound
that’s why)
Intro: just pluck the bass notes and strum downwards. Sounds perfect.

Refrain

Honey, listen its true
Bm7 A
No one’s ever loved you better
Bm7 E7

Adlib:
GUITAR 1
Part 1 (The tiniwniwniniw part) I’m sure about this
I think it was played on an electric organ or something I don’t know…it’s kinda trembling
e|--12---------12--------12-----------14-----------|
B|-----14---------14--------13h14p12-----14---10---|
G|--------13---------13----------------------------| 2 times
D|-------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------|
Part 2
(Well, I looked at my tab collection and I noticed somebody has already tabbed this
but I think mines better and I guarantee you I never copied it, and I figured it all out for
only two minutes, swear!)
I started on the ninth fret so it goes along in transition from Part 1.
e|--------------14r---14p12-12-5---10p9h10--5----5-5h7—8hb----|
B|--9h10-10/12------------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------|
Note: the last note 8hb(note C), should be nine, or (C#), but if you bend it, it sounds
like I explained in the legend above.
GUITAR 2 solo: just do the intro and refrain chords 1 time, or whatever goes along, I
bothered because it’s easy to figure out.
Refrain 2
DM7 A
And I’ve known a girl or two
DM7 A
But none of them was you
DM7 A
And they could never be
B7sus E
What you are to me….eh….
Chorus (do intro) (not sure if you raise the chords one half step)
BbM7
Stars that glisten
EbM7
Lips for kissing
BbM7 EbM7
Honey, listen its true
Cm7 Bb
No one’s ever loved you better
Cm7 F
Love you honey, I love you
Coda
Do intro 1 one half step higher,---(BbM7-EbM7)
Or just put a capo on the first fret
BbM7-EbM7
I love you, oh ohhhhh
I love you oh hoooohhh
I love you hmmmmm
Spoken
I love you…
Intro again…
