SENSITIVE NEW AGE GUYS (Christine Lavin)
----------------------------------------
[This song is really in D, I think.  I play it in A, capoed up five frets.
 Turns out Christine probably plays in it D (capo 2).  I've written the
 chords down in A; if you want Christine's chords, buy her songbook.]
[Indented words are spoken.]

[Intro: A - Bbo - Bm7 - E  over and over; Bbo=x12020]

[Christine:] Okay everybody, it's time for a little sing-along, but just
