Heard it, just exactly what did it mean?
And Richard, good old papa daddy, just went onto that golden shore I sang about.
[Gb] He and I wore out two [G] 8-track tapes of the work that we did.
[E] And Justin Haywood sang this song.
[B] Here, let's do a little imagining here.
You're a [N] young man or a young woman, and you have a need,
[E] much of a need to get [C] ahead in [Ab] the workforce and get a [Gm] promotion,
but it seems like it never can come.
One Saturday morning, we'll say it's a [B] beautiful morning,
you walk out on the [N] street, and all at once,
the most beautiful face, or handsome face, meets your eyes.
And you know that it's absolutely love at first sight.
And when you realize that, that person is at the top of the line as far as society [Ab] and wealth.
And you know it [Em] could never work.
That's what this is about.

[G] [F]
[E] [Am]
[G] [F]
[E] [A] Nights in white [G] satin, [Am] never reaching [G] the end.
[F] Letters [C] I've written, [E] never meaning to [Am] send.
[Dm] [Am] Beauty [G] I'd always [Am] missed with these eyes [G] before.
[F] [C] Just what the truth is, [E] I can't say [Am]
anymore.
[Dm] [Am] And I [D] love you, [Am] yes I love you, [E] oh [Am] how I love [Dm] [Am]
[G] [F]
[E] [Am]

you.
[E]
[G] Gazing at people, [Am] walking hand [G] in hand.
[F]
[C] Just what I'm going through, [E] they can't [Am] understand.
Some [G] try to tell me, [A] [Am] thoughts they cannot [G] defend.
[F] Just [C] what you want to be, [E] you can be [Am] in there.
[D] And I love you, [A] yes I [Am] love you, [E] oh how [Am] I love you.
And [D] I love you, yes [Am] I love you, [E] oh [Am] how I love [Dm] you.
