"It's because I love you"
by Master's Apprentices

This is a pretty good outline of the
 different parts to this old song.
Any corrections and especially the 
rest of the lyrics are welcome.

These tabs a for a six string, but 
playing them on a twelve string 
would make ita hell of a lot easier.

There are 3 main riffs and an easy 
set of chorus chords:

        riff 1          riff 2
     |--------------|------------
     |--10-9--7--5--|------------
     |--------------|------------
     |--7--6--4--2--|---5--4--5--
     |--------------|------------
     |--------------|------------
 |------------| 
 |------------| 
 |------------| 
 |7--5--4--5--| 
 |------------| 
 |------------| 


     Main riff/verse riff:  (takes a while to get used to the fingering)
        A      B    C#            
     |--------------------------
     |--10-10-12-12-14-14-14-14-
     |--------------------------
     |--7--7--9--9--11-11-11-11-
     |--------------------------
     |--------------------------
  E C#    B    A
 |12----------------------------| 
 |---14-14-12-12-10-10-10-10----| 
 |9-----------------------------| 
 |---11-11-9--9--7--7--7--7-----| 
 |------------------------------|

Main riff:
A       B      C#
Once we walked together
E    C#        B     A
>From the field up to the hill
Promised love forever
I remember that day still
It's because I love you
I'll come home to you one day
It's because I love you
In my thoughts you'll always stay

(C# note twice)

times then fades out)
