The Girl You Think You See - from  Anticipation - 1971

A     F#m7       D    Gmaj7
Tell me who you long for
Em                A
In your secret dreams
           D  Gmaj7               Em
Go on and tell me who you wish I was
            A
Instead of me

C#m7            D
I'm not necessarily
     Bm7                E
The girl you think you see
A7                    D7
Whoever you want is exactly who
    C#m7                 F
I'm more than willing to be
Bm         E
I'll be carefree
Bm               E
A Peace Corps trainee
Bm               E
Your Gypsy Rose Lee
     D     A
To please you

A    F#m7         D           Gmaj7
Who cares what I might be for real
       Em       A
Underneath my games
               D            Gmaj7     G 
I'll let you choose from a thousand faces
 Em              A
And a thousand names

C#m           D
I'm not necessarily
     Bm7              E
The girl you think you see
     A7                D7
Whoever you want is exactly who
C#m           F
I'm more than willing to be
Bm7        E
I'll be insane
       Bm7       E
A mathematical brain
       Bm7       E
You Tarzan, me Jane
     D     A
To please you


C#m           D
I'm not necessarily
     Bm7              E
The girl you think you see
     A7                D7
Whoever you want is exactly who
C#m           F
I'm more than willing to be
Bm7        E
I'll be a queen
       Bm7       E
A foul-mouthed marine
       Bm7       E
Your Mary Magdalene
     D     A
To please you
     D     A
To please you
     D     A
Just to please you
