Start Jamming...
This one's called the very thought of you what a killer song hair wrong with the hair mirror
I have a little mirror, please quick find the mirror.
I can't [F#] do it
[D#] Start again, there's been a mistake with my hair.
[F#] [D#]
I can keep them waiting.
They didn't pay
Well now where were we?
Ah yes, yes the very thought of you.
Thank you very much ladies and gentlemen being very patient with [F#] my hair.
It is [B] my own
[F#] [B]
the very [B] thought of you
And I forget to do
The little
[F#] ordinary
[B] things
That everyone ought to do
[C#]
I'm living [F#] in a kind [Gm] of daydream
[Gm] [G#m] I'm happy as a [A#] king
[D#m] And [D] foolish though [B] it may seem [C#] to [C#m] me
[E] That's everything
the [F#] mere idea of you
The [B] longing here for you
You'll never [F#] know how slow [B] the moments go [F#] till I'm near to you
[B] I
See [E] your face in [C#] every flower
Your [G#m] eyes in stars [C#] above
It's [C#m] just the thought of you the very thought [C#] of you my [B] love
