  • Here is my instrumental version of "Hopelessly Devoted To You" which was originally recorded by the British-Australian singer, songwriter and actress Olivia Newton-John for the 1978 film version of the musical "Grease". It was written and produced by John Farrar. The song was not part of the original stage musical production (and was replaced with the 1950s standard "Since I Don't Have You" for the 1994 revival), but it was added to the score for the 2007 revival
    I played this using my Fender Stratocaster (Bridge Pickup) with the Zoom G2.1Nu programmed with Echoes From The Past (EFTP Patch A9).
    Recording was done via USB to my home PC with Cubase
    The backing track was from Karaoke Version and can be purchased here - www.karaoke-ve...
    I also used tablature written by Ger Sanders
    I hope you enjoy my version of this heartbreaking ballad
    LYRICS:
    Guess mine is not the first heart broken
    My eyes are not the first to cry
    I'm not the first to know
    There's just no getting over you
    You know I'm just a fool who's willing
    To sit around and wait for you
    But, baby, can't you see
    There's nothing else for me to do?
    I'm hopelessly devoted to you
    But now there's nowhere to hide
    Since you pushed my love aside
    I'm out of my head
    Hopelessly devoted to you
    Hopelessly devoted to you
    Hopelessly devoted to you
    My head is saying, "Fool, forget him."
    My heart is saying, "Don't let go.
    Hold on till the end."
    And that's what I intend to do
    I'm hopelessly devoted to you
    But now there's nowhere to hide
    Since you pushed my love aside
    I'm out of my head
    Hopelessly devoted to you
    Hopelessly devoted to you
    Hopelessly devoted to you
