Biography:
The Chi-Lites were a Chicago-based smooth soul vocal quartet from the early 1970s, one of the few from the period to not come from Memphis or Philadelphia. They were led by Eugene Record, and scored eleven Top Ten R&B hits, in the early part of the decade.

[Intro] (x2)
E G#m7 A E/B B7
One month ago today
I was happy as a lark
But now I go for walks
To the movies - maybe to the park
And have a seat on the same old bench
To watch the children play (huh)
You know, tomorrow is their future
But to me, just another day
They all gather around me
They seem to know my name
We laugh, tell a few jokes
But it still doesn't ease my pain
I know I can't hide from a memory
'Though day after day I've tried
I keep sayin' she'll be back
But today again I lied
[Verse 1]
E Emaj7
Oh, I see her face everywhere I go
E6 E
On the street, and even at the picture show
B7sus4 B7
Have you seen her?
E
Tell me, have you seen her?
[Verse 2]
Oh, I hear her voice as the cold winds blow
In the sweet music on my radio
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?
[Bridge]
A G#m F#m
Why, oh, why
E E+ E6 E7
Did she have to leave and go away [2: oh, yeah]
F#7
Oh-oh-oh, I've been used to havin' someone to lean on
B7sus4 B7
And I'm lost
B7sus4 B7 A/B
Baby, I'm lost (Oh)
[Verse 3]
Oh, she left her kiss upon my lips
But left that break within my heart
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?
[Verse 4]
Oh, I see her hand reaching out to me
Only she can set me free
Have you seen her?
Tell me, have you seen her?

[Verse]
(spoken over 2nd and 3rd repeats):
As another day comes to an end
I'm lookin' for a letter or somethin'
Anything that she would send
With all the people I know
I'm still a lonely man
You know, it's funny
I thought I had her in the palm of my hand
