Stevie Wonder, Lately (1980)
Key: :[D] (w: Stevie Wonder)
INTRO: [D] [Bm] [Gmaj7] [Em7]
VERSE 1:
[D] Lately I have had this strangest
[Bm] feeling
[Em7] with no vivid reasons here to
[A] find
[Em] Yet the thought of
[EmM7] losing you's been
[Em7] hanging
[A] round my
[D] mind ^
[A]^
[D] ^
[A]^
[D]
VERSE 2:
[D] Far more frequently you're wearing
[Bm] perfume
[Em7] with you say, no special place to
[A] go
But
[Em] when I ask will
[EmM7] you be coming
[Em7] back soon
[A] you don't
[D] know, never
[D9] know
CHORUS:
[Em] Well, I'm a man of many wishes,
[Gm] I hope my premonition misses
But
[F#m7] what I really feel, my eyes won't
[B7] let me hide
Cause they
[Em7] al-
[F#m7]-ways
[Gm7] start
[A] to
[D] cry
Cause this
[Em7] time
[F#m7] could
[Gm7] mean
[A] good-
[D]-bye
[Bm] [Gmaj7] [Em7] [A]
VERSE 3:
[D] Lately I've been staring in the
[Bm] mirror
[Em7] very slowly picking me a-
[A]-part
[Em] Tryin' to tell my-
[EmM7]-self I have no
[Em7] reason
[A] with your heart
[D] ^
[A]^
[D] ^
[A]^
[D]
VERSE 4:
[D] Just the other night while you were
[Bm] sleeping
[Em7] I vaguely heard you whisper someone's
[A] name
But
[Em] when I ask you of
[EmM7] the thoughts you're
[Em7] keeping
[A] you just
[D] say, nothing's changed
[D/C]
REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
