[the second and third time you play the chorus tab in the song it might have some tiny variations, but I don't wanna bother to tab them out, it's basically the same.] VERSE 3: [play like verse 1] -------- I'm moppin' up the floor From messy recipes of romance I'm packin' up the pots Too many cooks in the kitchen CHORUS: [play like previous chorus] ------- Some, may say I love, to let a good thing go to waste I let it go to waste GUITAR-SOLO: ------------ B F#m Em7 A7 E|----------------------------------------------- B|----------------------------------------------- G|----------------------------------------------- D|-1---1-2-4------------------------------------- h = hammer-on
