B7          E7           A  A7
Likes every thing that I do

I sorta go for them too.

Or we’re recit-ing a poem
D6      E7           D6          E7
Owls go by, and they give us the eye

And snuggle my head to his chest

Her tal-cum all over my vest

She has to borrow my comb

Tells me he'll see me that night

D6        Dm
I look up roads to go
A           F#7
That no one else would know
B7        G#7          C#m
Under the sil'vry moon-light

Together -
           A6        B7        E
Tho' we're hiking on Sundays o'kay
