Hello.
You know what?
[Gb] They call a lot of people soul [Ab] singers, but I think they ought not to throw that name around too much.
They ought to wait till you come along, [N] use that name, because you really put your soul into it.
Oh, sweet darling, thank you so much.
Oh, hey, listen, ever since I first heard you, your first album, which I bought, I've wanted to sing a duet [Em] with you.
That was years ago.
Oh, that's beautiful.
Oh, that's gorgeous.
That [D] you bought an album years [Bm] ago is [A] fantastic.
That you want to sing with me is [D] another fantastic [A] thing, Flosius.

Rise, [A] and I suppose, a nurse come [Bb] to [A] me [D] for war.
The brother's a lonely, [A] the nurse is young, and now you know that [Bb] my [A]
tale is [Am] sung.
