Magnificent Obsession
Steven Curtis Chapman

He uses some odd chords in the song, so I will tab them out as (I think) he
plays them.  There are some odd timings which I won't write down ('cause I 
don't really know what they are)  So you have to listen to the song.  I will 
just write the order in which the chords go.  And also, to get the true sound 
of the song, you must follow the chords as I have written them down, (meaning 
although the C looks weird, it's right).

This is my key for writing the tab
h=hammer on
h/=pulloff(I could'nt think of how else to write it)

That's the whole song that I know, the Bridge chords are probably the same 
chords that we have used already, I just haven't bothered to figure out the 
order.  It will take some listeing and playing with the song to get it right
because of his chord timings, but I know this is right.
