Lyrics

(C)It’s not (Em)that un (F)us u al when (C)ev ’ry (Em)thing is (F)beau ti ful, it’s (Am)just an oth er (F)or di nar y (Dm)mir a (G)cle to (C)day.

The sky knows (Em)when it’s (F)time to snow, you don’t (C)need to (Em)teach a (F)seed to grow, it’s (Am)just an oth er (F)or di nar y (Dm)mir a (G)cle to (C)day.

Life is like a (Em)gift, they say,

wrapped up for you (Em)ev ’ry day,

o pen up and (Em)find a way

to give some of your (Gsus)own.

(C)Is n’t (Em)it re (F)mark ab le?

Like (C)ev ’ry (Em)time a (F)rain drop falls, it’s (Am)just an oth er (F)or di nar y (Dm)mir a (G)cle to (C)day.

The Birds in (Em)win ter (F)have their fling you and (C)al ways (Em)make it (F)home by spring, it’s (Am)just an oth er (F)or di nar y (Dm)mir a (G)cle to (C)day.

When you wake up (Em)ev ’ry day,

please don’t throw your (Em)dreams a way,

hold them close and (Em)to your heart,

to give some of your (Gsus)own.

’cause we are all a (G7)part

of the (Bbmaj7)or di nar y mir a cle.

Or di nar y mir a cle.

Do you want to see a mir a cle?

It seems (Em)so ex (F)cep tion al, that (C)things just (Em)work out (F)af ter all, it’s (Am)just an oth er (F)or di nar y (Dm)mir a (G)cle to (C)day.

The sun comes (F#m)up and (G)shines so bright,

it dis ap (F#m)pears a (G)gain at night, it’s (Bm)just an oth er (G)or di nar y (Em)mir a (A)cle to (D)day.

Ooh.

(D)Ooh.

It’s (Bm)just an oth er (G)or di nar y (Em)mir a (A)cle to (D)day.
