{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
