I doubt this is the original version but it is about 95% right, me and my bass teacher came 
up with this; you need to listen carefully for the bass. Also, please rate cuz this is
my first tab but i dont want that to make it sound like this tab is crap because believe
me, its not...

I heard that it was written in the bath at a hotel in Munich, Germany...oh well. Then the video was very Elvis-like too. It's funny that people mistaked it for an Elvis song :D I always thought the original lyrics were with "she." But then again, in the video, he dances with both men and women, as though to say, "Well, I'm not saying what my sexuality is! MAYBE I'm straight, and MAYBE I'm gay." Though the women were more touchy with him, but homosexuality wasn't as accepted then. But whatever...if straight people can go on about their love, then gay people can too. As for the meaning of the song...it doesn't sound like a gay anthem or really deep or anything like that. It sounds like Freddie just wanted to do an Elvis impression and say that love is a difficult and confusing thing.

They do kind of sound like Elvis, don't they? Funny for a British band. Freddie wrote it in the bathtub while in Paris, I read in the notes to "The Game" CD... go figure...
