The Very Thought of You

Al Bowlly


Tom: F#m

         A                    A6
The very thought of you and I forget to do
            A                           C#7
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do
         Bm7            E7
I'm living in a kind of daydream
  F#m          G#7
I'm happy as a king
    A                 G#7
And foolish though it may seem
  Bm7            E7
To me that's everything


[Verse 2]
          A                      A6
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
             A                                    C#7
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you
       Bm7           E
I see your face in every flower
  F#m7              C#7
Your eyes in stars above
              Bm7
It's just the thought of you
          E                 A
The very thought of you, my love


[Verse 3]
          A                      A6
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you
             A                                    C#7
You'll never know how slow the moments go till I'm near to you
       Bm7           E
I see your face in every flower
  F#m7              C#7
Your eyes in stars above
              Bm7
It's just the thought of you
          E                 A
The very thought of you, my love
