                             IT'S ONLY LOVE - Stevie Nicks
E|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------||
Tabbed by: Rob Froud

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).

Chords and lyrics


Verse one:

G         G    D  A7sus4      A7sus4 A7
I think I met my match again 

Em       Em6       Em7   C       
Passing 'round the candlelight 

G      G  D  A7sus4            A7sus4 A7
In the centre of this blizzard 

Em            Em6    Em7     C
You stood and melted all the ice 


Chorus:

Em       F    Am
Ah, it's only love 

Em       F    Am
Ah, it's only love 

Em     F    C               G
Ah, if only love comes around again 

G   D        A7sus4
It will have been 


Bridge:

Em             C   D
Worth the ride ...
 

Verse two:

G         G   D  A7sus4    A7sus4 A7
You were master of so many 

Em  E6  E7     C
But saviour to none 

G       G      D  A7sus4            A7sus4 A7
I waged all of my hopes so plenty 

Em           E6       E7   C
On you, now look what I've become ...


[Chorus]


Verse three:

G   G      D  A7sus4   A7sus4 A7
Someday's lonely is not only 

Em          Em6   Em7    C
A word, but faces I have known

G          G   D   A7sus4    A7 
And if you see me, could you free me 

Em               Em6   Em7 C
With a smile, so I can let go ...
