Late at night your footsteps

Barefoot on the floor

Tender eyes from sleeping

In the darkened corridor

I come up the stairway

My naked enemy

Comes stumbling towards me

Wish I could set you free

version 3
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: G
I've tabbed out the small "licks" which is played at the very beginning of the studio version of the song.
The four first notes on the 12th fret should be played as harmonic notes. Meaning you're gonna be touching
the string, but not fretting it. Anyways, if you do not wish to play the intro licks, you could just go
straight into the intro chords.
