"Because I Love You" - Masters Apprentices
Tabbed by Daniel Schaumann  
  (Check out my web page at "www.geocities.com/d_schaumann/" for more
  tablature / chord charts transcribed by myself.)


Okay, it might be a bit old but it's still        /\   /\
a damn good song.  I've even managed to make     /  \ /  \
the Masters Apprentices logo, if you're         /    \    \
wondering what the thing on the side is...     /    / \    \
But anyway, it's a damn good song to play     /    /   \    \
and it has a ripper of an intro, which is    /    /     \    \
the whole reason why I'm tabbing it out.    /    /_______\    \

It is actually played on a 12 string guitar, but I've designed this
transcription for a 6.  It'll still sound good on a 12 string, but
there may need to be a few position changes because of the octave
higher strings.

For the main riff, I find it's best to use the pick between your thumb
& index finger for the A string and use your middle & ring fingers to
pluck the two other strings.  Alternatively, you don't have to use a
pick at all, but it does help with the strumming during the chorus.

p  =3D  Pull off
