(Intro chords)
You better watch what you say
You better watch what you do to me
Don~t get carried away
Girl, if you can do better than me
Am
Go
F
Yeah, go
But remember
C Am
Good love is hard to find
C Am
Good love is hard to find
F
You got lucky, babe
G
You got lucky, babe
(Intro chords)
When I found you
(Intro chords)
You put an end on my tear
And then you turn your eyes away
If you don~t feel complete
If I don~t take you all of the way
Am
Then go,
F
Yeah, go,
But remember
C Am
Good love is hard to find
C Am
Good love is hard to find
F
You got lucky, babe
G
You got lucky, babe
(Intro chords)
When I found you
The guitar solo is (during the intro chords):
Am Dm G Am Dm G
E ————————————–|———————————|
B ————————————–|———————————|
G ————————————–|———————————|
D ——5–7—————————-|——5–7———————–|
A -7~———7~—5–3–5~—3-2–3–5-|-7~———7~—5–3–2–0——|
E ————————————–|—————————-3~~–|
The (~) means to sustain the note, the (~~) means to sustain and keep it
warply tremoloed.
Am
Yeah go,
F
Just, go,
But remember
C Am
Good love is hard to find
C Am
Good love is hard to find
F
You got lucky, babe
G
You got lucky, babe
(Intro chords)
When I found you
After this the song pretty much goes on through the intro chords, the final
Mike Campbell (sorta) solo is:
Am Dm G Am Dm G
E ————————————|—————————–|
B ————————————|—————————–|
G ————————————|—————-5–7–7b—–|
D ——5–7————————–|——5–7——————-|
A -7~———7~—5–3–5~———–|-7~———7~—————|
E ————————————|—————————–|
The song fades out on this and that is about it.
