But you're not really there

It's just the radio

Don't you remember you told me you loved me baby?

You said you'd be coming back this way again baby.

Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby,
Bbm Fm
I love you, I really do.

Ok, I play this song with a capo on the first fret and use the chords
Em, D, C, B and Am in the verses and C, B, Am, G, and Em in the
choruses. This seems to sound pretty close, but I think that Thurston
Moore tunes his guitars flat (Eb,Ab,Db,Gb,Bb,Eb).
