      C                       F                       C F
Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by.
   C                      F            C  F
I say to myself, "You're such a lucky guy."
 C                   F
To have a girl like her
                        C  F
is truly a dream come true.
       C                         F
Out of all of the fellas in the world
                C F
she belongs to you...

            C                 F
But it was just my imagination
 C                  F
running away with me.
        C              F
It was just my imagination
          C        F
running away with me...

Ooh-hoo-hoo-hooh

C              F
Soon we'll be married..
                C       F
and raise a family. (oh yeah)
      C                            F
In a cozy, little home out in the country
                           C  F
with two children, maybe three.
            C F                 C   F
I tell you, I  can visualize it all.
      C                           F           C   F
This couldn't be a dream for too real it all seems.

            C                   F
But it was just my imagination (once again)
C                   F
running away with me.
                     C              F
(telling me) It was just my imagination
         C         F
running away with me...

C
Every night, on my knees I pray,
             F
"Dear Lord, hear my plea...
C                       F
don't ever let another take her love from me
           G
or I will surely die.."
                  C
Ooh, her love is heavenly;
                 F
when her arms enfold me,
                  C     F
I hear a tender rhapsody...
         C    F                    C
but in reality, she doesn't even know me

        C                   F
It was just my imagination (once again)
C                    F
running away with me. oh
                     C              F
(telling me) It was just my imagination
          C         F
running away with me...
(I never met her, but I can't forget her.)
        C
It was just my imagination
          C          F
running away with me... Oooo
        C              F
It was just my imagination...
