Have I ever played you my Coca -Cola
commercial?
I have an unfinished song
that I think is a natural
Coca -Cola commercial
because this is the
day and age of psychedelics.
A 
 (A major) Every newspaper
will tell you that.
Every magazine will tell you that.
And I will tell you that.
And this is a psychedelic song
that would make a natural coca
A 
-cola advertisement.  (A major) 
With few alterations.
