Lately- Stevie Wonder
Transcribed by ear by tobijeh
Verse 1
[C#] [Bbm]
Lately I have had this strangest feeling,
[Ebm] [Ab]
With no vivid reasons here to find.
[Ebm] [Ab]
Yet the thought of losing you's been hanging,
[C#]
round my mind...
[C#] [Bbm]
Far more frequently you're wearing perfume,
[Ebm] [Ab]
With you say, "No special place to go"
[Ebm] [Ab]
But when I ask will you be coming back soon,
[C#] [C#6]
You don't know, never know.
Chorus
[F#]
Well, I'm a man of many wishes,
[F#m]
I hope my premonition misses,
[Fm] [Bb]
but what I really feel, my eyes won't let me hide,
[Ebm] [Fm] [F#m] [G#] [C#]
cause they always start to cry.
[Bb] [Ebm] [Fm] [F#m] [G#] [C#]
Cause it's time could mean goodbye.
Verse 2
[C#] [Bbm]
Lately I've been staring in the mirror,
[Ebm] [Ab]
very slowly picking me apart.
[Ebm] [Ab]
Tryin' to tell myself I have no reason,
[C#]
with your heart.
[C#] [Bbm]
Just the other night while you were sleeping,
[Ebm] [Ab]
I vaguely heard you whisper someone's name.
[Ebm] [Ab]
But when I ask you of the thoughts you're keeping,
[C#] [C#6]
you just say, nothing's changed.
Chorus 2
[B]
Well, I'm a man of many wishes,
[Bm]
I hope my premonition misses,
[Bbm] [Eb]
but what I really feel, my eyes won't let me hide,
[Abm] [Bbm] [Bm] [C#] [F#]
cause they always start to cry.
[Eb] [Abm] [Bbm] [Bm] [C#] [F#]
Cause it's time could mean goodbye.
