Mick writes:

Here's a song which was a big hit for Gladys Knight and the Pips, though this arrangement is based on a recording by Bobby Bland.

I've heavied it up a bit.. moved it into Gary Moore territory! But I think it rocks.. turn it up and enjoy.





























































Mick Clarke - Imagination I've really got to use
My imagination
To think of good reasons
To keep on keepin' on
Got to make the best
Of a bad situation
Ever since I woke up
and found that you were gone

Darkness all around me
Blockin' out the sun
Old friends call me
But I can't talk to anyone
Emptiness has found me
And it just won't let me go
I go right on livin'
why, I just don't know

Staring down reality
Don't do me no good
'Cause our misunderstanding
Is too well understood
Such a sad, sad season
When a good love dies
Not a day goes by
When I don't realize

I've really got to use
My imagination
To think of good reasons
To keep on keepin' on
Got to make the best
Of a bad situation
Ever since I woke up
and found that you were gone
