   with lyrics: 

   well i just heard, 
   the news today, 
   seems my life, 
   is gonna change, 
   i close my eyes, 
   begin to pray, 
   as tears of joy, 
   stream down my face. 
   end fig. 1

   end fig 2. 


   repeat FIG 1, intro 

   well i dunno, 
   if i'm ready, 
   to be the man,

   i take her by my side,, 
   we stated all, 
   we've created life.... 


   Repeat FIG2,twice with distortion 
   with arms wide open, 
   under the sunlight, 
   welcome to this place,
