[Intro]
Am Am Am Am Am Am
 
[Chorus ]
Am
I've really got to use My imagination
                    Dm
To think of good reasons
              Am
To keep on keepin' on (Keep on keepin' on)
                   Am
Got to make the best of (Best of, best of)
         Dm
A bad situation (Bad situation)
                 F7
Ever since that day (Ever since that day)
         Em               Am
I woke up and found you gone (Gone, gone)
 
[Verse]
Am
Darkness all around me, Blockin' out the sun
               Dm                               Am
Old friends call me But I don't want to talk to no one
                                       C   Dm
Emptiness has found me And it won't let me go                            
           F7
Why I go on livin'
Em             Am
 I just don't know (You're too strong, got to keep on keepin' on)
 
[Chorus]
Am
I've really got to use (I’ve got to use)
 
My imagination (My imagination)
                   Dm     F7
To think of good reasons (think of good reasons)
             Am
To keep on keepin' on (Keep on keepin' on)
 
I got to make the best of (Best of, best of)
         Dm
A bad situation (Bad situation)                        
                F7
Ever since that day (Ever since that day)
      Em                 Am
I woke up and found you gone (Gone, gone)
 
[Break ]
Am Am Am Am Am Am
 
[Verse 2]
Am
Hiding from reality, won't do me no good
                    Dm
'Cause our misunderstanding
                      Am
Is too too well understood, Such a sad, sad season
            C   Dm                      F7
When a good love dies   Not a day goes by                      
   Em              Am
Oooh I don't realize (You're too strong, got to keep on keepin' on)
 
[Chorus]
Am
I've really got to use (I’ve got to use)
 
My imagination(My imagination)
             Dm
To think of good reasons (think of good reasons)
            Am
To keep on keepin' on (Keep on keepin' on)
 
I got to make the best of (Best of, best of)
           Dm
A bad situation (Bad situation)
               F7
Ever since that day (Ever since that day)
        Em                Am
I woke up and found you gone (Gone, gone)
 
[Chorus]
Am
I've really got to use (I’ve got to use)
 
My imagination(My imagination)
                    Dm
To think of good reasons (think of good reasons)
            Am
To keep on keepin' on (Keep on keepin' on)
 
I got to make the best of (Best of, best of)
        Dm
A bad situation (Bad situation)
                  F7
Ever since that day (Ever since that day)
             Em               F7
I woke up, Ever since that day (Ever since that day)
              Em              F7
I woke up, Ever since that day (Ever since that day)
           Em                       Am
I woke up and found you gone (Gone, gone)
