You know that it ain't right. Never never

But each time I tell myself that I,
When I can't stand the Pain. but when
you hold me in your arms, I sing It once
again, I said Come on Come on Come on Come on

just go nuts on the 2 bends on the 19 fret.

into the 2nd half of the intro
"I need you to come on...."
