You Gave Your Love To Me Softly - =Weezer=

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is my first tab so I thought I would do I song I knew pretty well.

The other versions of this song that are out there are fine, but it looks

like no one took the time to figure out the proper way to play the solo.

So here it is, I'm 99% sure this is how Rivers plays it :) so enjoy!
