How To Make A Love Song
Standard Tuning: EADGBE
D Bm
The 1st part of this song, I guess
Em A
should start with something sweet
D Bm
cause lovesongs often do ,and you know
Em A
me, i'm such a geek
G D
For songs that I can sing to you
G D
and I'm hoping this could be one
G D
and I hope that you would like
Em D
me...este...like it when i'm done
D Bm Em
The 2nd part is easy to mess up with
A
something cheesy
D Bm
So I better choose my words cause I
Em A
don't want it to be mushy...
G D
coz' that's the thing with lovesongs
G D
and that's the tricky part
G D
it's not hard to sound corny when you're
Em D
singing from the heart
Bm A
And when the chorus comes,I must come up
with something clever
Bm A
coz For you it's just a lovesong but for me
it's now or never!
Em A
And though I tried my best to make it
Bm D
beautiful and true
G D
I Could Never Make A Song As
Em D
Beautiful As You...

x -> mute the string

NOTES: -Measure 8:
Naka-sustain yung 3 kaya kinuha sa mababang fret. Yung 'open' sa
measure 9 ang magbibigay ng oras para magawa yung next chord.
