[repeat chorus]

[freak-out section]

	[Editor's note:  when I heard them live, they extended the
	freak-out section for a couple minutes, stepped up to the mic,
	and executed the acappella section in *perfect* four-part
	harmony without *any* pitch reference!  And no, it wasn't taped,
	either; this was 1968...]

Acappella break:

        Love love love love...

        I love you, yes I do, I do	(2X)

Coda (repeat to fade):

        C     Dm7/C   C      Dm7/C
        Susan     I love you
