Love Me Like a Man  Bonnie Raitt

I'm sure it has a few mistakes but then ... it has a lot of notes! I think it's pretty
close. This is based on this LIVE VERSION : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXVoOgwiYc8
and was transcribed by a combination of watching her hands and by ear. It may differ
from the studio version.
