Key: A
Introduction:
A A7+ F#7 D E7
What a day for a daydream, what a day for a daydreamin' boy!
A C#m7(5-) F#7 D E7
I'm lost in a daydream, dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy
D Dm6 A F#7
And even if time ain't really on my side
D Dm6 A F#7
It's one of those days for takin' a walk outside
D Dm6 A F#7
I'm blowin the day to take a walk in the sun
D D7+ E7/6 E7 Fº
And fall on my face on somebody's new mowed lawn
A A7+ F#7 D E7
I've been havin' a sweet dream been dreamin' since I woke up today
A C#m7(5-) F#7
It starred me and my sweet-pea --
D E7
She's the one makes me feel this way
D Dm6 A F#7
And even if time is passin me by a lot
D Dm6 A F#7
I couldn't care less about the blues you say I got
D Dm6 A F#7
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for droppin' my load
D E7
A pie in the face for being a sleepy ol' toad.
Instrumental Interlude: 1st two lines of verse
D Dm6 A F#7
And you can be sure that if you're feelin' right
D Dm6 A F#7
A daydream will last along into the night
D Dm6 A F#7
Tomorrow at breakfast you may pick up your ears
D E7
Or you may be daydreamin' for a thousand years...
A A7+ F#7 D E7
What a day for a daydream, custom-made for a daydreamin' boy
A C#m7(5-) F#7 D E7
I'm lost in a daydream, dreamin' bout my bundle of joy
