Song: I'm not in love (Live Acoustic version)
Artists: Graham Gouldman / 10cc
Composers: Graham Gouldman and Eric Stewart
Album: Heart full of songs

Tabbed by DJ 5th April 2014

Graham's acoustic version at this link:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mO_T9CiH4Zw

IMPORTANT-  PLEASE NOTE:
Graham Gouldman performs this version a full tone lower than the
original 10cc recording, and he misses out the 'Big boys don't cry'
bridge section.
If you want to play in the original key that 10cc recorded it in,
just use a Capo at the 2nd fret to bring it into the key of B 

For the intro and coda sections Graham plays Asus4 (x07750) to
A (x07650). He also plays a standard G (355433) to Gm (355333),
but, personally, I think the A9sus, Gmaj7 and Gm6/Bb all evoke a
smoother sound which is much closer to the original record, 
particularly if played on just one guitar.
