Temptations, Just My Imagination (1971)
Key: :[D] (w: Norman Whitfield, Barrett Strong)
INTRO: [D] Oooooh
[Em7] [D] [Em7]
VERSE 1:
Each
[D] day through my window I
[Em7] watch her as she passes
[D] by
[Em7]
I
[D] say to myself, you're
[Em7] such a lucky
[D] guy
[Em7]
[D] To have a girl like
[Em7] her, is truly a
[D] dream come
[Em7] true
Out of
[D] all the fellas in the
[Em7] world, she be-
[D]-longs to you
[Em7]
CHORUS 1:
But it was
[D] just my imagination
[Em7],
[D] runnin' away with me
[Em7]
It was
[D] just my imaginat-
[Em7]-ion, runnin' a-
[D]-way with me
[Em7]
VERSE 2:
[D] Soon, soon we'll be
[Em7] married and raise a
[D] family
[Em7]
A
[D] cozy little home out in the
[Em7] country, with two
[D] children, maybe three
[Em7]
I tell you,
[D] I
[Em7], I can
[D] visualize it
[Em7] all
This
[D] couldn't be a dream, I
[Em7] tell you how real it
[D] all seems
[Em7]
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
[D] 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
[A7] surely die, her love is
[D] heavenly
When her arms enfold me, I feel a tender Rhapsody
But in reality, she doesn't even know me
REPEAT CHORUS:
