Temptations, Just My Imagination (1971)
Key: :[A] (w: Norman Whitfield, Barrett Strong)
INTRO: [A] Oooooh
[Bm7] [A] [Bm7]
VERSE 1:
Each
[A] day through my window I
[Bm7] watch her as she passes
[A] by
[Bm7]
I
[A] say to myself, you're
[Bm7] such a lucky
[A] guy
[Bm7]
[A] To have a girl like
[Bm7] her, is truly a
[A] dream come
[Bm7] true
Out of
[A] all the fellas in the
[Bm7] world, she be-
[A]-longs to you
[Bm7]
CHORUS 1:
But it was
[A] just my imagination
[Bm7],
[A] runnin' away with me
[Bm7]
It was
[A] just my imaginat-
[Bm7]-ion, runnin' a-
[A]-way with me
[Bm7]
VERSE 2:
[A] Soon, soon we'll be
[Bm7] married and raise a
[A] family
[Bm7]
A
[A] cozy little home out in the
[Bm7] country, with two
[A] children, maybe three
[Bm7]
I tell you,
[A] I
[Bm7], I can
[A] visualize it
[Bm7] all
This
[A] couldn't be a dream, I
[Bm7] tell you how real it
[A] all seems
[Bm7]
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
[A] Every night, on my knees, I pray; dear Lord, hear my plea
Don't ever let another take her love from me
Or I would
[E7] surely die, her love is
[A] heavenly
When her arms enfold me, I feel a tender Rhapsody
But in reality, she doesn't even know me
REPEAT CHORUS:
