[Intro]
Emaj7 Amaj7 Emaj7 Amaj7
[Verse 1]
Emaj7 Amaj7
I saw you this morning
Emaj7 B7
Though you were nowhere in sight
Emaj7 A7
But I've got to admit that the thought of you
F#m7 B7
Hangs around me like a hand on my shoulder
F#m7
Like a fly on my nose
[Chorus]
B7 E F#m7
I got you on my mind (Got you, got you on my mind)
Emaj7 B7
Got you on my mind (Got you on my mind)
[Verse 2]
Emaj7 Amaj7
Well, I tried to catch the moon in a butterfly net
Emaj7 B7
But I tripped and it slipped from my hand
Emaj7 A7
And it fell into the sea
F#m7 B7
But at least I know where the moon is hiding
F#m7
And just like the moon
[Chorus]
B7 E F#m7
I got you on my mind (Got you, got you on my mind)
Emj7 B7
Got you on my mind (Got you on my mind)
[Bridge]
F#m7
Now some nights I'll be sitting at home
Emaj7
Staring at some old magazines
Fmaj7 A7
And I wonder could somebody tell me
A7
Whatever happened to those back seat plans
D7
Or did they drive off with the man?
[Verse 3]
Gmaj7
I tell you, a girl stays single 'cause she don't like men
Cmaj7 D7
Or maybe she likes them too much
B7 E F#m7
Me, I like them not too much or too little
F#m7 C#m7 F#m7 C#m7
But times were easy and so was I
F#m7 C#m7 B7
Was I in love with you or just in love with love?
[Chorus]
E F#m7
I got you on my mind (Got you, got you on my mind)
Emaj7 B7
Got you on my mind (Got you on my mind)
[Instrumental Break]

E A7 F#m7 B7
[Chorus]
E F#m7
Got you on my mind (Got you, got you on my mind)
Emaj7 B7
I got you on my mind
[Verse 4]
Emaj7 B7
There were days when I'm feeling so low
Emaj7 B7
Brought us close as no good times could
Emaj7 A7
There were moments so full of understanding
F#m7 B7
And I couldn't bear to see them end
F#m7 B7
Ooh, I'd like to be in love again
[Chorus]
E F#m7
I got you on my mind (Got you, got you on my mind)
Emaj7 B7
Got you on my mind (Got you on my mind)

I said I got you, can't seem to get you off my mind (Got you, got you on my mind)
Emaj7 B7
I got you on my mind
E7 A7
Just like a hand on my shoulder, like a fly on my nose (Got you, got you on my mind)
Emaj7 B7
I got you on my mind (I got you on my mind)
Emaj7 A7
Like a hand on my shoulder, like a fly on my nose (Got you, got you on my mind)
E7 B7
I got you on my mind (I got you on my mind)
E7
Ooh-ooh-ooh (Got you, got you on my mind)
