Temptations, Just My Imagination (1971)
Key: :[C] (w: Norman Whitfield, Barrett Strong)
INTRO: [C] Oooooh
[Dm7] [C] [Dm7]
VERSE 1:
Each
[C] day through my window I
[Dm7] watch her as she passes
[C] by
[Dm7]
I
[C] say to myself, you're
[Dm7] such a lucky
[C] guy
[Dm7]
[C] To have a girl like
[Dm7] her, is truly a
[C] dream come
[Dm7] true
Out of
[C] all the fellas in the
[Dm7] world, she be-
[C]-longs to you
[Dm7]
CHORUS 1:
But it was
[C] just my imagination
[Dm7],
[C] runnin' away with me
[Dm7]
It was
[C] just my imaginat-
[Dm7]-ion, runnin' a-
[C]-way with me
[Dm7]
VERSE 2:
[C] Soon, soon we'll be
[Dm7] married and raise a
[C] family
[Dm7]
A
[C] cozy little home out in the
[Dm7] country, with two
[C] children, maybe three
[Dm7]
I tell you,
[C] I
[Dm7], I can
[C] visualize it
[Dm7] all
This
[C] couldn't be a dream, I
[Dm7] tell you how real it
[C] all seems
[Dm7]
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
[C] 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
[G7] surely die, her love is
[C] heavenly
When her arms enfold me, I feel a tender Rhapsody
But in reality, she doesn't even know me
REPEAT CHORUS:
