IT'S ONLY LOVE - Stevie Nicks
Tabbed by: Rob Froud
E-mail: rob.j.froud@googlemail.com
Tuning: STANDARD (with capo on 2nd)
Stevie plays this differently to Sheryl Crow, who wrote the song for Stevie before recording it
herself, in 2002. Stevie's version is from the album 'Trouble in Shangri-la' (2001).
There are a couple of fills missing if anyone can add - I have approximated and will
amend if I can refine. Note there are two guitars being picked on the album track; so some fills
may be difficult without a couple more hands. This is mainly the first guitar (left channel on
album) including a couple of fills from the second. This is my first tab and I'm returning to
the guitar after years of not playing - so apologies if anything is wrong or poorly noted (please
let me know). Timings omitted.
Capo on 2. Chords named relative to capo (e.g. G is in reality A).
