           Dm
I'd be the voice that urged Orpheus
         A#       Dm
When her body was found
F   A#  A Dm
Hey yeah
             Dm
I'd be the choiceless hope in grief
            A#        Dm
That drove him underground
F    A# A Dm
Hey yeah

            Dm
I'd be the dreadful need in the devotee
      A#             Dm
That made him turn around
 F   A# A Dm
Hey yeah
                Dm
And I'd be the immediate forgiveness
   A#      Dm
In Eurydice
Imagine being loved by me

Chorus:
   A#      F      Gm              F Gm      Dm
I won't deny I've got in my mind now (Hey, yeah)
All the things I would do
      Dm     A#     F
So I try to talk refined
     Gm                 F Gm
For fear that you find out (Hey, yeah)
Dm
How I'm imagining you

I'd be the last shred of truth
In the lost myth of true love (Hey, yeah)
I'd be the sweet feeling of release
Mankind now dreams of (Hey, yeah)
That's found in the last witness
Before the wave hits, marvelling at God (Hey, yeah)
Before he feels alone one final time and marries the sea
Imagine being loved by me

Chorus:
I won't deny I've got in my mind now (Hey, yeah)
All the things I would do
So I try to talk refined for fear that you find out
(Hey, yeah)
How I'm imaginin' you
I won't deny I've got in my mind now (Hey, yeah)
All the things we could do
So I try to talk refined for fear that you find out
(Hey, yeah)
How I'm imaginin' you
