I couldn’t find any tabs online that had this song in a complete and accurate form. Two
guitars play in the solo, but I tabbed out the main part of it for one that sounds close
to the original. This is a great song and fun to play.
Tabbed by Mike Juozokas, 2005.

Bb F C G
Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Bb F C (intro riff)
Maybe I'm afraid of the way I love you

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you pulled me out of time

And hung me on a line
Ab Eb C
Maybe I'm amazed at the way I really need you

Maybe I'm a man and maybe I'm a lonely man
Who's in the middle of something

Maybe I'm a man and maybe you're the only woman
Who could ever help me
G D Dm G A7
Baby won't you help me understand
