Tabbed by: John Leadman   
                    
                        
               
   
   
   CHORDS:
   
           
   Bm*   (x24430)
   Asus2 (x02200)
   E     (022100)


   
   
   
   
      = slide down
     / = slide up
     D = dive down with whammy bar

   
   INTRO:
   
           Bm*  Asus2   E          Bm*  Asus2      E
   E|------------------------------------------------------------|
   B|--0---7--------7--0------0---7--------5-3--2-0-------------|
   G|--------------------------------------6--------------2---1--|
   D|-------------------------------------7-------------4---2----|
   A|------------------------------------------------------------|
   E|------------------------------------------------------------|
       D                       D
       |                       |
      These D's mean if you have a whammy bar on your guitar, dive
      down a bit on these notes. I can't tab it any better than
      that.
   
   Then comes the part that's used many times in the song, we'll
   call it RIFF 1.
   
   RIFF 1: [play twice]
       Bm*                Asus2              E
   E|----2------0-------------------------------------------|
   B|------3------3-----2-------0---------------------------|
   G|--4----(4)----(4)----4-------4-----2----1-----1-2-2/4--|
   D|----------------------(4)-----(4)-----2-----2----------|
   A|-------------------------------------------------------|
   E|-------------------------------------------------------|
   
   The notes in parantheses ( ) are notes that he probably doesn't play
   but I usually play them anyway because I think they sound good.
   
   The lead guitar should have some heavy reverb on it.
   
   
   In the verses there are two fills that are often used:
   
   FILL 1:                       FILL 2:
   E|--------------|             E|--------------|
   B|--------------|             B|--------------|
   G|----2---1-----|             G|----1-2-2/4---|
   D|--4---2-------|             D|--2-----------|
   A|--------------|             A|--------------|
   E|--------------|             E|--------------|
   
   
   VERSE 1:
   
       Bm*                   Asus2                    E  
   The world was on fire and no one could save me but you

        Bm*                      Asus2               E  [FILL 1]
   It's strange what desire will make foolish people do

   Bm*                  Asus2                  E  [FILL 1]
   I never dreamed that I'd meet somebody like you

       Bm*                  Asus2                  E  [FILL 2]
   and I never dreamed that I'd lose somebody like you
   
   
   In the first two lines of the CHORUS, you can faintly hear the
   lead guitar playing something like this:
        Bm             Asus2           E
   E|-----0-----0--------------0---------------------|
   B|-------3-----3------0-------0-----0-------------|
   G|---------4-----4------2----------------1-2-2/4--|
   D|---4--------------2-----------------------------|
   A|------------------------------------------------|
   E|------------------------------------------------|
   
   CHORUS: [play first 2 lines with tab above]
   
      Bm*  Asus2               E
   No I    don't wanna fall in love

      Bm*  Asus2               E
   No I    don't wanna fall in love

        [play RIFF 1]
   With you
        [play RIFF 1]
   With you
   
   
   VERSE 2: [play like VERSE 1]
   
   What a wicked game to play, to make me feel this way
   What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you
   What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way
   What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you and
   
   
   CHORUS: [play first 2 lines with same tab as first CHORUS]
   
   Bm*  Asus2               E
   I    don't wanna fall in love

      Bm*  Asus2               E
   No I    don't wanna fall in love
        [play TAB below]
   With you
   
   
     Bm*     Asus2     E          Bm*  Asus2      E
   E|-----------------------------------------------------------|
   B|----0---7---------0------0---7--------5-3--2-0-------------|
   G|-------------------------------------6--------------2---1--|
   D|------------------------------------7-------------4---2----|
   A|-----------------------------------------------------------|
   E|-----------------------------------------------------------|
         D                    D
         |                    |
        These D's mean if you have a whammy bar on your guitar, dive
        down a bit on these notes. I can't tab it any better than
        that.
   
   
   Now play RIFF 1 twice
   
   
   VERSE 3: [play like VERSE 1]
   
   The world was on fire and no one could save me but you
   It's strange what desire will make foolish people do
   I never dreamed that I'd love somebody like you
   I never dreamed that I'd loose somebody like you
   
   
   CHORUS: [play like first CHORUS]
   
      Bm*  Asus2         E
   No I    wanna fall in love

      Bm*  Asus2         E
   No I    wanna fall in love

        [play RIFF 1]
   With you
        [play RIFF 1]
   With you
   
   
   OUTRO:
   
   [Play RIFF 1 over this line]
      Bm*    Asus2    E    Bm*    Asus2   E
