                           BDash (x2444x@1)of salt and spice to make it like you like, 
  A (x02220@1)                              E (022100@1)

                                 C#mThat (x13321@4)opens all the flavors into bloom, 
     A (x02220@1)                               BAnd (x2444x@1)it's the same with you, you had a minute with my heart,
