Hot Chocolate - Everyones A Winner (First Version) Chords and Tabs

Since there are no correct tabs out there for such a well known riff, I thought I'd post my own.
I worked the tabs out by ear from a slowed down version of the song, so the odd note may
incorrect but I think the vast majority are correct.
To get the correct timing try listening to the song, or even better get a slowed down version.
All string bends in this song are small bends, not quite half step.
I've set  as sliding down the neck of the guitar, so higher in note, and / as the reverse.

Never could believe the things you do to me,
Never could believe the way you are.
Every day I bless the day that you got through to me,
'Cause baby, I believe that you're a star.

Everyone's a winner, baby, that's the truth (yes, the truth)
Making love to you is such a thrill.
Everyone's a winner, baby, that's no lie (yes, no lie)
You never fail to satisfy (satisfy)

Never could explain just what was happening to me,
Just one touch of you and I'm a flame.
Baby, it's amazing just how wonderful it is
That the things we like to do are just the same.

Everyone's a winner, baby, that's the truth (yes, the truth)
Making love to you is such a thrill.
Everyone's a winner, baby, that's no lie (yes, no lie)
You never fail to satisfy (satisfy)
