Chris, I'll preface this by telling just a brief story about when I first heard this song.
I graduated fifth grade, it was the last day of school in 1965, and I was free as a bird to quote the late John Lennon.
And I was running down the driveway of School One in Scotch Plains, New Jersey with my friends, the gang, the Front Street Gang,
and all of a sudden I see at the end of the driveway my mother waiting for me in the car. How cool.
And she goes, get in the car!
And I'm mortified, my friends are going, ah, ah, they're laughing at me.
And she goes, come on, we're going to see the new Beatles movie.
And it was help, and we sat through it twice.
Later on I learned that the air conditioner had died in the house,
and that we only went to the movies because it was healthfully air conditioned.
But how cool was your mom, though, to pick that movie?
You could have seen any movie in 1965.
And I loved all the songs, but this one in particular, because it was set in the Beatles' cool path with John and the Pit and the Gardner playing tambourine,
we're going to do our version of Hide Your Love Away.
No, no, no, let me correct you.
Is this mic on?
Let me correct you, Pat.
The Gardner played the recorder, Ringo, in fact, played the tambourine.
Oh, okay.
I stand corrected.

[F#] Hearing [C#] them, [E] feeling [F#] them [B] in the [C#m] state I'm [B]
