I think this is a vamp essentially on A and Dmaj7 which are probably the main chords
in Must
be
my
imagination quoted near the end.
To my ears it sounds as though the intro is something like this.
Hit the A string A6(pull off to)A/EA

I can't have no objection to the world outside

I don't have no complaints against life's one way ride
ADmaj7 A Dmaj7
I know I'm sleeping with an angel and this devil's in luck
Oooooooh wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
I've been dreamin for too long
I guess something's always wrong unless I
Wake up, next to you, I wanna
Wake up, next to youyou
E D AADA
Oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh
Oooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, yeah
The Summer's left a spell on us, magic and gold
The tarmac's cracked and shimmering, up on the road
I know I'm walking with an angel down a hot avenue
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
I've been dreamin for too long
I guess something's always wrong unless I
Wake up, next to you, I'm gonna wake up
Wake up, next to youooooooo(Sax solo)
(Spoken)
You know what I'm gonna do, I'm gonna pick up the telephone
right now and I'm gonna call information and I'm gonna say to 'em
Where
is
she
right
now?
Cause
I
want
you
and
I
need
you
And I wanna hear her say: Hey
baby,
Wake
up! (bass riff from
must
be
my
imagination)
Wake up, next to you, I'm gonna wake up
Wake up, next to youyou
E D AADA
Oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh
Oooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, yeah
Where
is
she
right
now?
Cause
I
want
her
and
I
need
her fade on wake
up
