Yeah, go
But remember

Good love is hard to find

(Intro chords)
You put an end on my tear
And then you turn your eyes away
If you don~t feel complete
If I don~t take you all of the way
     Am
Then go,
      F
Yeah, go,
But remember
C            Am
Good love is hard to find
C            Am
Good love is hard to find
        F
You got lucky, babe
        G
You got lucky, babe

When I found you

After this the song pretty much goes on through the intro chords, the final
Mike Campbell (sorta) solo is:

   Am                    Dm     G       Am                   Dm   G

E ------------------------------------|-----------------------------|

D ------5--7--------------------------|------5--7-------------------|
A -7~---------7~---5--3--5~-----------|-7~---------7~---------------|
E ------------------------------------|-----------------------------|


The song fades out on this and that is about it.
