Tabbed by: Andrew Afan [atamize@hotmail.com]

Note: The lyrics aren't perfect because I had to get them by ear,
but they're close enough. For parts that use Gm/D, it's also
possible to play it as G, but it doesn't sound as good.

G            A                              G
Thinking of these things [hold him down]

My heart is yours
