Remember a song called it must have been love or it must have been love from the movie pretty woman
Do you recognize it Charlie?
Yes, I do.
Well, you know with me singing it
It was from pretty woman the duo behind that ballad just wrapped up their first US tour in 20 years
That tour almost didn't happen the group singer had to overcome a life-threatening illness

5,000 [A] fans packed the [E] Gibson Amphitheater to see [B] a band [D] most probably first heard in high school
_ _ [A] _
_ [G] _ _ [D] They [A] came to see Roxette the pop rock duo [D] from Sweden guitarist hair [A] guessla and vocalist Marie [C#] Fredrickson
_ [D#m] _ [B] _
Her powerful [F#] voice gave the group [C#] its signature [D] sound and a string of number one international hits in [A] the 80s and 90s _
_ Hits like the look [Dm] and it must have been [Am] loved from the [G] Julia Roberts movie pretty woman

[C] 140 City World [G] Tour and a [Dm] new album travel
[Em] _
[C] But _ _ [G] it was a [D] tour that almost didn't happen [Am] you were faced [C] with a
Life [F#m]-threatening illness.
Can you [G] tell me about that?
What happened?
_ Thank God it's over
It has been very very [D#] very tough _
[N] but _ I'm here
I'm not dead when I was very very ill.
It was very
_ _ _ _ _ Afraid in
2002 Fredrickson was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor
The cancerous tumor was surgically removed but months of chemotherapy and radiation treatment left her physically weak
Unable to read and nearly blind in one eye
She withdrew from public life and turned to painting as she underwent extensive rehabilitation
Fans feared they'd never see Roxette perform again a fear also shared by Fredrickson
We were very afraid _ _ _ _ _
But seven years later in 2009 she surprised an audience at a solo performance by Gessler in [Fm] Amsterdam
Pushing aside her fears.
She [Dm] joined her former bandmate on stage [Am] in a reunion [G] documented in this YouTube video _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ Ask me why don't you join me on [F] stage to do some [D] Roxette stuff to my surprise you agreed
Did that take a lot of courage for you to get back up on the stage?
Yes _
Yes, it was [G] I was very [F] nervous
But when we're standing [G] there together
_ suddenly it [C]
just
[E] Was like all this
[B] _ _
[Em] Frail and quiet [F#] offstage
[D] Fredrickson is commanding [A] on stage.
[F#] She credits [E] the audience with helping her recover a form [B] of music therapy
[D] _ She feeds [Am] off the energy [N]
generated by thousands of screaming fans
What's that like when that washes over you the audience response?
What's that like?
[Gm] That's just the best
_ Just _ [A#] _ _
_ _ _ [N] _ our fans has been with us for so long.
It's like medicine.
Yeah exactly _
Roxette fans are so grateful to see Fredrickson and [C] Roxette back in the spotlight.
They often sing along [N] to help her _
_ _ [D#] _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] _ So, what is it like for you?
Watching Marie get back up on the stage like this
It's a miracle that she survived and it's an even bigger miracle that we she's still here touring 19 months
Hey, even you even her doctor said it wasn't possible
But she's doing it and it's [C#] just fantastic
_ [D#m] _ _ [B] _ _ And [F#] unlike most rock tours [C#] Roxette is an out to promote their new [B] album [F#] each night
They give [C#] fans what they want the early [D#m] hits
Reconnecting with [B] old fans through [F#] old songs
_ [A#] We're not out to promote the new album or trying to do something like that
We try to do a a great to sit show for the fans
Basically sounds almost like you feel better now after 19 months of grueling
Absolutely touring.
Yeah, [D] then you did before
Absolutely, so [F#] much better
_ [D] _ _ _ _ _ For CBS this morning, I'm Bill Whitaker in Los Angeles _ _
