					       [doubled by bass]


	Note: the "organ" - actually Zal's Guild Thunderbird with the treble
	rolled off - plays the following chords during the verses:

		  111	  111	  111     111
		xx765x	xx777x	xx432x	xx645x
		   G       C       E       D

	The rhythm guitar plays G while the "organ" plays G to C (as denoted
	by brackets).

Verse 1:

	            G            [C]         [G     C]
	1: Did you ever have to make up your mind
	3: Then you know you better make up your mind
	    G         [C]                G       E
	To pick up on one and leave the other behind
	      G         D         C
	It's not often easy, and not often kind
	         D                         G
	Did you ever have to make up your mind

Verse 2:

	[2: Did you ever have to finally decide]
	[4: Then you bet you better finally decide]
	To say yes to one and let the other one ride
	There's so many changes and tears you must hide
	Did you ever have to finally decide [4: to coda]

Chorus 1:

	                  E7
	Sometimes there's one with big blue eyes, cute as a bunny
	      A7
	With hair down to here and plenty of money
	     C             A7               G          E7
	And just when you think she's that one in the world
	      D7
	Your heart gets stolen by some mousy little girl and...

[repeat verse 1]

[guitar solo over verse chords]

Chorus 2:

	Sometimes you really dig a girl the moment you kiss her
	And then you get distracted by her older sister
	When in walks her father, and takes you in line
	And says "better go home, son, and make up your mind"

[repeat verse 2]

Coda:   (repeat last bar of intro)
