Em7 = EmEm7/B = BEm7/A = EmEm7/G = EmEm/G = GEm7/D = DD/F# = D

Anyway, here is the COMPLETE AND UNBM PLIFIED VERB ON OF THE SONG
TUNE YOUR GUITAR C WN A SEE TONE (though I don't, and it sounds fine.)

We were just in time,

We were just a good thing, we were such a good thing.

Make it go away without a word.
