The Very Thought of You  

 
(G7)     C                 C6
The very thought of you and I forget to do
 
           C     C+5    C6         Cmaj7     D7
The little or-di-nar-y things that ev'ryone ought to do.
 
      Dm7-5      G7     Am           Am7       B7
I'm living in a kind of daydream, I'm happy as a king,
 
    Em     Am7-5         D7      Dm            G7
And foolish though it may seem, to me that's  ev'-ry-thing.
 
 
           C                       C6
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you;
 
             C         C+5      C6     Cmaj7       D7
You'll never know how slow the moments go 'til I'm near to you.
 
  Dm7-5            G7     Am         Am7       D7
I see your face in ev'ry flower, your eyes in stars above--
 
               G7             D#dim
It's just the thought of you,
 
 
(First Time)
 
          Dm7-5         G7      C   Cmaj7 Dm7-5 G7
The very thought of you,   my love.
 
 
(Last Time)
 
          Dm7-5         G7      C    Am       C
The very thought of you,   my love. 



THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU

00868.0000 THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU

The very thought of you, and I forget to do
The little ordinary things that everyone ought to do.
I’m living in a kind of daydream,
I’m happy as a king, and foolish though it may seem,
To me, that’s everything.
The mere idea of you, the longing here for you,
You’ll never know how slow the moments go
Till I’m near to you.
I see your face in every flower,
Your eyes in stars above;
It’s just the thought of you,
The very thought of you, my love.
