Song: I WAS MADE FOR LOVIN' YOU
Artist: KISS
Album: DYNASTY
--------------------
Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, kfemil@telia.com
Standard tuning
Comments: Octaves. Truly a disco-staple for bass if there ever was one and
on this track Gene milks 'em far all they're worth. Grab a pick and eight-
note the night away. Just looks out for the truly unexpected flurry of
sixteenths leading into the chorus. Very tasty.

| i am a really big kiss fan but i really dont like the Dynasty album cuz they kind of sold out and went for what was more popular at the time (disco) instead of sticking to the rock that hardcore kiss fans came to love | |

| Previous posters obviously need no help with the understanding of the words. This is KISS's response to the disco craze. Akin to "Miss You" by the Stones and "Do ya think I'm Sexy?" by Rod Stewart. | |
