Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
I've [Am]really got to use my imagination
To think of good reas[Dm]ons
To keep on [Am]keepin' on
(keep on keepin' on)

[Verse 2]
Got to make the best [Am]of (best of,
best of) a bad [Dm]situation (bad situation)
Ever since that [Am]day [F](ever since
that [E]day) I woke up and found
That you [Am]were gone (gone, gone)

[Verse 3]
[Am]Darkness all around me
Blackin' out the sun
Old [Dm]friends call me
But I just don't feel like talkin'
to [Am]anyone

[Verse 4]
[Am]Emptiness has found me
And it just won't let [Dm]me go
Go right on [F]livin'
But [E]why, I [Am]just don't know
(You're too strong not to keep on keeping on) Yes,

[Interlude 1]
I am
[Am]

[Verse 5]
(You're too strong not [Am]to keep on
keeping on) staring down reality
Don't do me no good
'Cause our misun[Dm]derstanding
Is too well [Am]understood [Dm](too well
[Am]understood)

[Verse 6]
[Am]Such a sad,
sad season (sad, sad season)
When a good [Dm]love dies
(when a good love dies)
Not a day goes [F]by (not a
day goes by)
[E]When I don't [Am]realize[F]
[Am](realize)

[Verse 7]
[Am]I've really got to use my imagination
(I've got to use)
To think of good [Dm]reasons
(I've got to use)
To keep on [Am]keepin' on
(I've got to use)

[Verse 8]
I've [Am]got to make the best of (best of,
best of) a [Dm]bad s[F]ituation (bad situation)
[Dm]Ever since that day [F](ever since that day) I woke
up and [E]found that you were [Am]gone

[Verse 9]
(You're too [Am]strong not to keep
on keeping on)
(I've got to use my imagination) my
imagination
(I've got to use my imagination) to
think of good [Dm]reasons
(I've got to use [F]my [Dm]imagination) to keep
on [Am]pushin' on
I said I've got to make the best of (best of,
best of)
Of a bad situation (bad situation)
[Dm]Ever since that [F]day (ever since that day) I woke
up [E]and found that you [Am]were gone
(You're too strong [F]not [Am]to keep on
keeping on) I really got to use
(I've got to use) that imagination,
gotta think of good [Dm]reasons

[Outro 1]
[Dm][Am]
