B-Second Verse
The acoustic guitar enters, arpeggiating the same chords(almost). It is pos-
soble that the slide in the Bsus2 chord should be a hammer-on. It is also
possible that I just have tin ears, but I do think I hear SOME sort of grace
note there. Anyway, it is just a detail, so if the fingering is tricky to you,
forget it.NOTE: What I call "dive bomb" slide has nothing to do with the thing
you do with the whammy bar. I just don't know what else you call those long,
fast slides down the low E-string.

  Verse 2:(with rhy.fig1)                      xxx=Electric guitars enters,
   I looked around, and what did I see?            with a "dive bomb slide"
   Broken hearted people staring at me...
   All searching 'cause they still believe..     Oh, oh, oh...Love ain't no
                                                                stranger!!!
C-Main Riff/Third Verse
()=These notes are there, but I can't make out if they are played by the
hammond or another guitar. They don't have to be played by this guitar, anyway.

-Rhythm Fig2----------------------------------------------------------------

                                                Let E5-chord ring
Make sure to nail that staccato rhythm, and to shake that last B5-chord in
every bar a little. (Maybe it would make more sense to place the 2/4 bar
after the A5-chord, but that's one for the music theory guys to think about.)

-Rhythm Fig. 3---------------------------------------------------------------

 Verse 3:
I was alone,And I needed love. So much I'd sacrifice for all I was dreaming of.
(With Rhy.fig3)
I heard no warning, but a heart can tell... I feel the emptiness of love I know
so well...
D-Chorus.
Those slighly muted G5-Chords are the key to the fat, chunky sound. I don't
really remember if those "extra" chunks on the open and fifth fret of the A-
string really are on the record, but experiment with 16th-note chunks there.
It can sound very cool...

Rhy.fig.4---------------------------------------------play-two-times------

                     Let Chord Ring.
 Chorus:           Love ain't no stranger...            I ain't no stranger...
                   Love ain't no stranger...        I ain't no stranger to
    with Ry.Fig2.

   love...  no ,no ,no...
E-Fourth Verse
With Rhy.fig.3 ( 2 times)
    Can't hold the passion, of a soul in need...
    I look for mercy when my heart begins to bleed.
    I've known good loving, I'm a friend of pain.
    But when I read between the lines it's all the same...
F-Second Chorus
   with Rhy.Fig4

--------8----------

  Love ain't no stranger.
  I ain't no stranger.
  Love ain't no stranger.
  I ain't no stranger to love...
E-Guitar Solo
The rhythm part behind the solo is a semi-distorted electric, playing a pro-
gression almost like the one in Rhythm Figure 1. The chords are the same, but
I think they are arpeggiated a little differently. Play that, and nobody will
notice. The solo is a slow beautiful melody thing, that should not be hard to
figure out. I haven't transcribed it, since I work out my own leads for the co-
ver tunes I learn.(Try it, it's great fun).The last three bars of the rhythm
part goes something like this.

--------8----------

                                                  Love ain't no stranger!!!"
F-Agressive part.(Dunno what else to call it)
Play this part aggressively(Why do I keep giving these instructions? You know
how the record sounds. Oh, well...).

H-Outro
Turn down the volume knob on your guitar a bit for this tone. This is mainly
Rhythm Figure 1, again with some different arpeggiations.
