from 1993 tour.


         C                             G-

Like always, fell free to make this tab better.
This is a very simple song but in the chorus, Adrian play some strange part i tried to 
for you, and for me (you can hear it in particular in some bootleg from the acoustic 1993 tour).
I love the melody and the words.
This tab, and the time I spent to write it, is dedicated to Vale.
I love you like the summer loves the big blue sun, this is the truth.

Thank you Ade.
