Standard tuning

Comments: This tab doesn't look like what the song sounds like I know, but 
the bass plays mainly staccato quarters (which at this speed is kind of hard
to do) with the odd syncopation thrown in. I kind of like the diminished
runs that lead into the chorus.


Key:
/    = slide up
    = slide down
b    = bend (whole step)
b^   = bend (1/2 step)
b^^  = bend (1 1/2 steps)
pb   = pre-bend
r    = release-bend
t    = tap with righthand finger
h    = hammer-on
p    = pull-off
~    = Vibrato
*    = Natural Harmonic
#(#) = Trill
**   = Artificial Harmonic
x    = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
()  = Dive war
(/)  = Release war
Tp   = Tap wplectrum

[Intro: drums only]
Oh, let's get 'em, boys 
[Rhy. Fig 1] (3x)

[Rhy. Fig 3 w/ End 1]
Too many women, I've got too little time 
I keep on tryin' 
[Rhy. Fig 3 w/ end 2]
Man, if it kills me I know that I'll go 
Dead, stiff, and smilin' 

[Rhy. Fig 4a]
Oh, don't need no doctor puttin' me to bed 
Give me the nurse and I'll make sure that she's fed 
Don't need no doctor giving me pills 
I'm hot enough to give you chills 

[Rhy. Fig 5] (3x)
Livin' life for love, I'm alive, I'm alive 
I can't get enough (I can't get enough) 
Get it right (right) I'm alive 
[Rhy. Fig 6]

[Rhy. Fig 3 w/ End 1]
Take a look in the Book of Love, man it's understood 
Right to the letter 
[Rhy. Fig 3 w/ End 2]
One pretty girl makes you feel pretty good 
Two's even better 

[Rhy. Fig 4b]
Oh, I learned my lesson, my golden rule 
You know I made the teachers stay after school 
Don't look for reasons, don't waste my time 
I've got the goods to make you mine 

[Rhy. Fig 5] (3x)
Livin' life for love, I'm alive, yeah, I'm alive 
I can't get enough (I can't get enough) 
Get it right (right) I'm alive

You know baby, you make my heart beat, alright

[Rhy. Fig 9]
Don't need no doctor 
Take a look at the Book of Love, man it's understood 
It ain't a crime to feel this good, no 

[Rhy. Fig 5] (repeat and fade)
Livin' life for love, I'm alive, yeah, I'm alive 
I can't get enough (can't get enough) 
Get it right (right) I'm alive

Livin' life, livin' life for love, I'm alive, I'm alive 
I can't get enough (can't get enough) 
Get it right I'm alive (I'm alive) 
Livin' life for love (livin' life for love)
