Lyrics

Just a (Eb)per fect day,

drink san gri a (Db)in the park,

and then la ter when it gets dark, we go (F)home.

Just a (Eb)per fect day,

feed a ni mals (Db)in the zoo,

then la ter a mo vie too and then (F)home.

Oh (Bb)it’s

such a (Eb)per fect day

(Dm)I’m glad I spent it with (Eb)you

oh such a (F)per fect day,

you just (Gm)keep me (F)hang ing (Eb)on,

you just (Gm)keep me (F)hang ing (Eb)on.

Just a (Eb)per fect day,

drink prob lems all (Db)left a lone,

and week end ers when on our own, it's such (F)fun.

Just a (Eb)per fect day,

you made me for (Db)get my self,

thought I was a some one else, some one (F)good.

Oh (Bb)it’s

(Dm)I’m glad I spent it with (Eb)you

oh such a (F)per fect day,

you just (Gm)keep me (F)hang ing (Eb)on,

You’re going to (Ab)reap

just what you (Eb)sew.

You’re going to (Ab)reap

just what you (Eb)sew.
