Love Is Strong The Rolling Stones
Rolling Stones
Love Is Strong
from the Voodoo Lounge album
Tabbed by Rein Hettinga ( e-mail: RocketkingGNR@hotmail.com )
I never saw a tab version of this song, so i gave it a try.
Only tabbed the cool Keith Richards rhythm part though.
The Ron Wood backing/solo part is basicly the chords
(in standard tuning) and some blues licks in A.
Chords used
G or G A C D F
D[-0----12--2--5--7--10--] If these chords sound ***ty B[-0----12--2--5--7--10--] maybe you have to tune to G[-0----12--2--5--7--10--] "Keith tuning" (open G) D[-0----12--2--5--7--10--] just like Keith! G[-0----12--2--5--7--10--] X[-----------------------]
(Keith doesn't have a 6th string, that's what the X stands for)
Intro (open G-tuning)
[A] [C] [G] [A]
D[------------------------------------] B[----------5---5----3---3---3---3p2--] G[--0h2-2---5--5-----4p2-4p2-4p2-4p2--] D[--0h2-2---5-5-----------------------] G[--0h2-2-----------------------------] X[------------------------------------]
This isn't just the intro but also the verse (same chords)
It is played again and again but with some slight variations:
palm muting, hammer-ons and pull-offs, and some sliding.
Then there's the verse and that's played something like this:
play this three times
[D] [F] [G] [D]
D[--------------] I haven't indicated how many times each B[--------------] chord is played. Just listen to the the G[-7--10-12--7--] recording.(as for the timing) D[-7--10-12--7--] G[-7--10-12--7--] X[--------------]
then this
[D] [C] [A]
D[-----------------------------------2--] B[-----------------------------------2--] G[--7-7-7--5--2---0h2--0h2-0h2-0h2-2-2--] D[--7-7-7--5--2---0h2--0h2-0h2-0h2-2----] G[--7-7-7--5--2---0h2--0h2-0h2-0h2-2----] X[--------------------------------------]
and then back to verse/intro riff
Hope you can use this. I would like comments

Verse 2: Follow same chords as verse 1
Love is strong, and you're so sweet, and someday babe, we got to meet
Just anywhere, out in the park, out on the street, and in the dark
I followed you, through swirling seas, down darkened woods, with silent
trees.
Love is Strong, and you're so sweet, you make me hard, you make me weak
Back to Bridge
Verse 3: same as verse 1 and verse 2
I wait for you, until the dawn, my mind is ripped, my heart is torn
Love is strong, and you're so sweet, your love is bitter, it's taken neat
Love is strong, yeah...etc.

That's basically all of the song. If you have any corrections or comments
please send them to me or post them. Voodoo Lounge is the only
Rolling Stones album I have. If anybody could tell me
which is their best one, that would be great.
