Chris de Burgh - If You Really Love Her, Let Her Go
From the albums: At the End of a Perfect Day (1977) and The Love Songs (1997)
Comment for any corrections and please rate
In 1977 the first version of this song was released on the album At the End of a Perfect Day.
20 years later Chris de Burgh re-recorded the song with the arrangement of Peter Oxendale.
These chords match the original version from the album At the End of a Perfect Day.
The chords of the re-recorded version from the album The Love Songs are the same but then you
should leave the capo.
Capo 2
This is the tab for the intro, these notes are also being played when you see the Esus4 chord down below.
All notes are relative to the capo so at the re-recorded version you can play the same notes but
without a capo.
