Melanie Safka - Perceive It
CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO:   G    C   G  
Stop the car if I have Ccome this far
Without learning how to make an Gunexpected Dturn
Learn to Gplay the changes to the Cbeat of time
Satisfaction never Dwas a friend of GmineD  
CHORUS:
PerGceive it and say goodCbye to it
Don't hold on to any Gone moDment
You've got to Glove it and then reClease it
Don't hold on to any Gone moDment
GSend a postcard, if you Cgo to France
Let me know if you're aGlive and doing Dfine
I have Gnever loved by mail, so Chere's my chance
I would like to write it, if I Dever get the GtimeD  
CHORUS:
PerGceive it and say goodCbye to it
Don't hold on to any Gone moDment
You've got to Glove it and then reClease it
Don't hold on to any Gone moment
GDraw your boundaries and Cpaint your signs
Though they say 'Alone', at least I Ghave a word to Dpray
And I Gfollow, needing all there Cis of time
Solo dancers learn their Dsteps along the GwayD  
CHORUS:
PerGceive it and say goodCbye to it
Don't hold on to any Gone moDment
You've got to Glove it and then reClease it
Don't hold on to any Gone momentD  
OUTRO:
GOh oh oh, Coh oh oh 
GOh oh oh, Coh oh oh 
Don't hold on to any Gone moment
