Here's BB's poem of young love. Can't really imagine playing this one at
a party, but the melody's really sweet.


[intro]:

D(x5777x)

Dmaj7(x5767x)

Bm7/F# (xx4542)
      She said it was just a figment of speech

  F(133211)
& I said "you mean figure" and she said "no, figment"
                          Dmaj7
because she could never imagine it happening, but it did.....
