RAITT BONNIE - I CANT MAKE YOU LOVE ME (CHORDS) TABS

Tuning:

From phil@hpmsfpb.sj.hp.com Tue Jul 28 11:40 PDT 1992 Someone requested this one, and this is my best guess at the chords. I don't know the name of the (E+) chord, but I drew it above the first one. If someone knows the right chords, please help me out here. I CAN'T MAKE YOU LOVE ME as recorded by Bonnie Raitt (in other words, I don't know who wrote it) ______
