Well I finally sat down with the Singles CD and bashed this out. I can
play the riff at the beginning, but now that I don't have my guitar
in hand I forget it. Agh. I can't understand two places where Chrissy
is singing either--'crescending' and 'baggle' aren't words that I know
of, but that sounds like what she's saying. Corrections appreciated.

There are about three versions of this already in the archive, but none of
them is quite right. This one's a little better; someone sent it to me last
fall, and I recently cleaned it up because I wanted to play it.
Unfortunately, this might still have mistakes; I can't check because I don't
have the album. I'll have to see if I can get them to play it on the radio...
