                      F#
                Wel-ell you'll say it's a magic thing
                A

                         B                  Ab

                A                    E
                Cause I've had those home sick blues

                A
                When I go down to the city
                  F#
                I just don't know wrong from right
                A

                LEAD
                A
                Love is a singular thing
                       F#
                It can take you up or bring you down
                     A
                There's, love in the song that I sing
                        B                    Ab
                So come on now Mattie listen to this sound

                Dbm           Abm
                When you grow up we'll sit and talk
                A             E
                Of how things used to be
                Dbm       Abm
                I'll be your grand old man of rock
                A              E
                With all these memories.
