This version supersedes my previous submission to OLGA.

                      (Brian Wilson / Tony Asher)

Verse 1:

	Bass:

	Bm/A
	 v     v     v     v       v     v     v     v
	-14----------------------|-------------------------|
	-------------12----------|----14-------------12----|
	-------12----------12-14-|----------14-12----------|

	It starts with just a little glance, now

	 A
	 v     v     v     v       v     v     v     v
	-14----------------------|-------------------------|
	-------------14----------|----14-------------14----|
	-------12----------12-14-|----------14-12----------|
	-------------------------|-------------------------|

	Right away you're thinkin' 'bout romance now

	Bm/A
	You know you ought to take it slower
	A
	But you just can't wait to get to know her

	    D  A/C#  Bm  A G#m7-5         C#7        F#m   A7/E
	A brand new love affair is such a beautiful thing
	        D    A/C#  Bm  A  G#m7-5          C#7          F#m
	But if you're not careful think about the pain it can bring

	            C#7/G#
	It makes you feel so bad
	              F#m/A
	It makes your heart feel sad
	             C#7/B
	It makes your days go wrong
	               C#m7
	It makes your nights so long
	              E7/D [bass: slide high D (G string, 19th fret) down]
	You've got to keep in mind

Chorus:

	         A   /G D/F# Dm/F A/E   D/A
	Love is here                  today
	          A   /G D/F# Dm/F A/E   D/A
	And it's gone                 tomorrow
	      A   /G  D/F# Dm/F E7
	It's here and gone  so fast

	(bass doubled w/piano):

	(E7)
	 v   v   v   v     v   v   v   v
	---------------9-|-----------------|
	-------6---6-9---|---9---6---------|
	-7-------7-------|---------7---9---|
	-----------------|-----------------|

Verse 2:

	Right now you think that she's perfection
	This time is really an exception
	Well, you know I hate to be a downer
	But I'm the guy she left before you found her

	Well, I'm not sayin' you won't have a good love with her
	But I keep on rememberin' things like they were

	She made me feel so bad
	She made my heart feel sad
	She made my days go wrong
	And made my nights so long
	You've got to keep in mind

[repeat chorus and bass/piano riff]
