Introduction:
E G#m
Did you ever have
A F#m
one of these days?
C#m B
This is a day
G#m A
like any other day
E G#m
You are free to
A F#m
wake up and shave
C#m B
Soapy hands
G#m A
fumbling on porcelain
E G#m
Hot good coffee and
A F#m
a good good book
C#m B G#mA
Bicycle! Bicycle!
B C#m A
Breathing easier now
B C#m
Tear the roof off
A E F#m
your day No one's
C#m D
coming over
B C#m
It ain't written
A
so don't try
to read it
E G#m
Smell the hot rain
A F#m
on the street
C#m B
Could be love
G#m A
Could be alcohol
E G#m
Cup my hands
A F#m
around your face
C#m B
A little frame
G#m A
A lot of pain
E
I can tell the
F#m G#m A G#mA F#m
tears from the rain
C#m B
One tastes sweet
G#m A
the other plain
E F#mA
(Repeat Chorus 1)
Am Em
And who am I to think
F
I could hang such a
G
precious life
Am Em F Dm
on a clever line?
Am Em
You're in all
F G
the books I read
Am Em
A hundred pages
F Dm
out of reach
Am Em
And so I pull myself
F
Crawl to my feet
G
hit the street
Am Em F Dm
It'll take some time
Am Em
to learn the lesson
F G Am
of the fall and
Em F Dm
begin another climb
B C#m A
Breathing easier now
B C#m
Tear the roof off
A E F#m
your day No one's
C#m D
coming over
B C#m
It ain't written
A
so don't try
