Johnny Tillotson / Bobby Vee *
G+G
When I see my baby
A minorAm
What do I see
G+G
Poetry
C majorC D7D7
Poetry in motion
G+G E minorEm
Poetry in motion
C majorC D7D7
Walkin' by my side
G+G E minorEm
Her lovely locomotion
C majorC D7D7
Keeps my eyes open wide
G+G E minorEm
Poetry in motion
C majorC D7D7
See her gentle sway
G+G E minorEm
A augmentedA wave out on the ocean
C majorC D7D7
Could never move that way
B7B7 E minorEm
I love every movement
B7B7 E minorEm
And there's nothing I would change
B7B7 E minorEm
She doesn't need improvement
A7A7 D7D7
She's much too nice to rearrange
G+G E minorEm
Poetry in motion
C majorC D7D7
Dancing close to me
G+G E minorEm
A augmentedA flower of devotion
C majorC D7D7 G+G
A augmentedA swaying gracefully
G+G
Whoa

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
A minorAm
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Whooooooooa
G+G E minorEm
Poetry in motion
C majorC D7D7
See her gentle sway
G+G E minorEm
A augmentedA wave out on the ocean
C majorC D7D7
Could never move that way
B7B7 E minorEm
I love every movement
B7B7 E minorEm
And there's nothing I would change
B7B7 E minorEm
She doesn't need improvement
A7A7 D7D7
She's much too nice to rearrange
G+G E minorEm
Poetry in motion
C majorC D7D7
All that I adore
G+G E minorEm
No number-nine love potion
C majorC D7D7
Could make me love her more
G+G
Whoa
A minorAm
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
A minorAm
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
