EVERY TIME I LOOK AT YOU
Paul Stanley, Bob Ezrin



Tryin' to say I'm sorry, didn't mean to break your heart 
And find you waitin' up by the light of day 

There's a lot I want to tell you, but I don't know where to start 
And I don't know what I'd do if you walked away 

Ooh, baby I tried to make it, I just got lost along the way 

But every time I look at you, no matter what I'm goin' thru, it's easy to see 
And every time I hold you, the things I never told you, seem to come easily 
'Cause you're everything to me 

[Rhy. Fig 1|

[Rhy. Fig 2|
I never really wanted to let you get inside my heart 
I wanted to believe this would soon be ending 
I thought it wouldn't matter, if it all just came apart 
But now I realize I was just pretending 

Ooh, baby, I know I hurt you, but you can still believe in me 

[Rhy. Fig 3|
But every time I look at you, no matter what I'm goin' thru, it's easy to see 
And every time I hold you, the things I never told you, seem to come easily 
'Cause you're everything to me 
[Riff 1|

[Rhy. Fig 4|
It's gonna take a little time to show you, just what you mean to me, oh yeah 
It seems the more I get to know you, the more I need to make you see 
You're everything I need, yeah 

[Rhy. Fig 5|
Oho, I need ya, I need ya, I need ya... 

[Rhy. Fig 6|
Ooh, baby, baby, baby, I know I hurt you, but you can still believe in me 


But every time I look at you, no matter what I'm goin' thru, it's easy to see 
And every time I hold you, the things I never told you, seem to come easily 
'Cause you're everything to me 

You're everything to me, you're everything to me

How to Read Bass Tabs

Bass tablature (tabs) is an easy way to learn songs without needing to read traditional sheet music. Here’s a quick guide to understanding the symbols and techniques commonly found in tabs:

1. The Basics

Strings and Frets:
Each line in a tab represents a string on your bass:
- The top line is the highest-pitched string (G on a 4-string bass).
- The bottom line is the lowest-pitched string (E on a 4-string bass).
Numbers on the lines indicate which fret to press. For example:
```
G|-------------------|

D|-------------------|

A|---3---------------|

E|-------------------|

            
```
This means you play the 3rd fret on the A string.

2. Common Techniques

Hammer-On (h):
Play the first note by picking it, then press down on a higher fret with another finger without picking again.
```
G|-------------------|

D|-------5h7---------|

            
```
Pull-Off (p):
Pluck a note and then "pull off" your finger to let a lower fret ring.
```
G|-------------------|

D|-------7p5---------|

            
```
Slide (/ or \):
Move your finger up (/) or down (\) the fretboard while maintaining pressure.
```
G|-------------------|

D|-------5/7---------|

            
```

3. Advanced Techniques

Bend (b): Push the string up or down to raise the pitch. Example: G|-------7b9---------|
Vibrato (~): Shake the string slightly after playing a note to create a vibrating sound. Example: G|-------7~----------|
Muted Notes (x): Rest your finger lightly on the string without pressing a fret and pluck for a percussive "click" sound.

4. Rhythm and Timing

Tabs don’t always indicate timing, so listen to the song while reading the tab. Wider spaces between numbers mean longer pauses, while closer numbers indicate quicker notes.

5. Slap and Pop

Slap (s): Strike the string with the side of your thumb for a percussive sound.
Pop (p): Pull the string away from the fretboard and let it snap back.

Practice Makes Perfect

Tabs are a great tool to learn songs, but mastering the techniques takes practice. Listen carefully to the original track and play along to lock in the rhythm. Don’t rush — smooth, accurate playing is more important than speed. Happy jamming! 🎸
