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.
