- * in the recorded version of the song, he's "lonesome for love", but in an
- acoustic demo I've heard he's "lonesome for home". I much prefer the
- "lonesome for home" bit but, hey, Cheap Trick always had the corniest
- lyrics. Still do. I wouldn't like them so much if they didn't. :)
-
- Bitch to learn, bitch to tab, but well worth it.
