"It's because I love you"

This is a pretty good outline of the different parts to this old song.
Any corrections and especially the rest of the lyrics are welcome.

These tabs a for a six string, but playing them on a twelve string would make ita hell of a lot easier.

There are 3 main riffs and an easy set of chorus chords:

riff 1          riff 2
|--------------|------------------------|
|--10-9--7--5--|------------------------|
|--------------|------------------------|
|--7--6--4--2--|---5--4--5--7--5--4--5--|

Lyrics from the last half of the song:

(play riff 1 twice)
(play riff 2 twice)

Main riff:
A       B      C#
Once we walked together
E    C#        B     A
Promised love forever
I remember that day still
It's because I love you
I'll come home to you one day
It's because I love you
In my thoughts you'll always stay

(C# note twice)
