Johnny Tillotson, Poetry in Motion (1961)
Key: :[G] (w: Paul Kaufman, Mike Anthony)

INTRO:
[G open] When I see my baby
[Am open] What do I see?
[Bm] Poetry...
[C] poetry in [D7] motion

VERSE 1:
[G] Poetry in [Em] motion
[Am] Walkin' by my [D7] side
Her [G] lovely loco-[Em]-motion
[Am] Keeps my eyes [D7] open wide

VERSE 2:
[G] Poetry in [Em] motion
[Am] See her gentle [D7] sway
A [G] wave out on the [Em] ocean
Could [Am] never [D7] move that [G] way

BRIDGE 1:
I [B7] love every [Em] movement
There's [B7] nothing I would [Em] change
She [B7] doesn't need im-[Em]-provement
She's [A7] much too nice to [D7] rearrange

VERSE 3:
[G] Poetry in [Em] motion
[Am] Dancing close to [D7] me
A [G] flower of de-[Em]-votion
A [Am] swaying [D7] graceful-[G]-ly

BRIDGE 2:
Oh, a-[Em]-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa, [Am] whoa
A-[D7]-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa, [G] whoa
Oh, a-[Em]-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa, [Am] whoa
A-[D7]-whoa...

REPEAT VERSE 2:

REPEAT BRIDGE 1:

VERSE 4:
[G] Poetry in [Em] motion
[Am] All that I a-[D7]-dore
No [G] number-nine love [Em] potion
Could [Am] make me [D7] love her [G] more

REPEAT BRIDGE 2:
