I Want You Lyrics

Tuned down 1/2-step
Comments: Ive arranged the tabs here so that the a-version of each is the
guitar on the left and the b-version is the one on the right (most of
the time). Of course, sometimes they play the same thing (even though
the guitar on the right kind of weaves in and out of the mix in a strange
fashion) and there are other guitars that pop up for fun. The first part
of the solo is by Paul and the second is Ace. I think, but Im not sure
about this, that Paul comes back to finish the solo off for the last four
bars (last two staffs). It sounds a lot like his vibrato there.

I WANT YOU
Paul Stanley
Rhy. ig 1a w/ Rhy. ig 1b
In the morning I raise my head
And I'm thinkin' of days gone by
And the thing I want out of life is
Rhy. ig 2
Rhy. ig 3a w/ Rhy. ig 3b
I want you (I want you)
Rhy. ig 4a w/ Rhy. ig 4b
I want you (I want you)
Rhy. ig 7 w/ Riff 1
You can run, you can hide
But you never get away
You can lie and deny
But you know you're gonna pay
Rhy. ig 8a
Never loved, never thought you could
Treat you right, girl, you know I would
You can fight but tonight
There's nothin' you can do
Rhy. ig 3a w/ Rhy. ig 3b
I want you (I want you)
Rhy. ig 4a w/ Rhy. ig 4b
Baby, baby, babe, I want you (I want you)
Rhy. ig 7 w/ Riff 2
You can walk in a haze
You can travel till you die
You can live in a dream
And your life will pass you by
Rhy. ig 8a
Every day that you hesitate
You're never changin' the hands of fate
You can fight but tonight
There's nothing you can do
Rhy. ig 4a w/ Rhy. ig 4b
I want you (I want you)
Baby, baby, babe I want you (I want you)
Solo 1 then Solo 2 over Rhy. ig 9 w/ Riff 2
Rhy. ig 8b
Rhy. ig 10a w/ Rhy. ig 10b
In the morning I raise my head
And I'm thinkin' of days gone by
And the thing I want out of life is
Rhy. ig 2
(w/ flanger)
Rhy. ig 4a w/ Rhy. ig 4b and Riff 1
I want you (I want you)
Rhy. ig 5a w/ Rhy. ig 5b and Riff 1
Baby, baby, babe I want you (I want you)
Rhy. ig 4a w/ Rhy. ig 4b and Riff 1
Baby, baby, babe I want you (I want you)
Rhy. ig 4a w/ Rhy. ig 4b and Riff 3

Baby, baby, babe I want you (I want you)
Baby, baby, babe I want you (I want you)
I want you (I want you)
I want you (I want you)

I want you (I want you)
Ah (I want you) (I want you)
