Tuning: EADGBe (normal tuning)
This song has plenty of guitar work in it including many little licks throughout
the song and a guitar solo. I haven’t included in this tab all the guitar work,
but some.
Intro: Play Twice

Second time the intro is played a second guitar comes in playing what sounds
like these chords over the top: F(133233), Bb(113331), C(335553), Bb(688766).
Also, something like this following lick is played on the small e string when
moving from the C to Bb chord. e|---6/8--10---7~----|. These are also the chords
I use to play the chorus and the
first three chords are the chords used to play the rest of the song.
Then it moves on to something like this played on the big E string:
E|--3/5--5--5---3/5--5--5---|
Then something like this is played, this I found very hard to tab so I just play
something like this, i'll call it the chord tab. It’s just the Bb and C chord played
in a higher octave and sounds cool in the song and has character. It is also played
after every line in the verses and after the chorus. The stroke indicator at the top
tells you how many times you stroke the chord and which direction:
Stroke:U,D,U. Stroke:D,U,D. Stroke:U,D.
e|---6-------------8------------6-------------------------------------------|
B|---3-------------5------------3-------------------------------------------|
G|---3-------------5------------3-------------------------------------------|
D|---3-------------5------------3-------------------------------------------|
A|---5-------------7------------5-------------------------------------------|
E|---6-------------8------------6-------------------------------------------|
Then it is played again starting with the Big E string tab. Then it moves on
to the verse, where I haven't tabbed it just repeats the previous line's tab
F Bb C F (chord tab)
SOME BOYS GOT THE LOOK OF THE GREEK ADONIS
SOME BOYS TRY TALK YOU OFF YOUR FEET
SOME BOYS THINK THEY`RE GODS GIFT TO WOMEN
SOME BOYS JUST THINK THEY`RE SWEET ENOUGH TO EAT
Pre-Chorus: (just after the last line of the verse while the chord tab is playing,
another guitar comes over the top and plays a lick before the song moves into the
pre-chorus. I tried to tab it and came up with this):
e---14p12---10h12-----14—12p10----8~---
Bb C
TRY TO CHANGE THE HABIT OF A LIFETIME
Bb C
DON`T EVEN TRY
`COS WHEN YOU CUT DOWN DEEPER THAN THE ICING
YOU REALISE
[CHORUS]
F Bb C
WHAT YOU GET IS WHAT YOU SEE
Bb
AIN`T NOTHING MORE TO IT
AND IF YOU WANNA LOVE A WOMAN LIKE ME
IT TAKES A MAN TO DO IT
IF WHAT YOU GET IS WHAT YOU SEE
THEN I DON`T WANT YOUR KIND OF LOVE
