Lyrics

My tea’s gone (Fmaj7)cold; I’m won d’ring why (Em)bills I pay.

got out of bed at all.

The morn ing rain clouds up my win dow to day; and I can’t see at all.

And e ven if I could, it ’d all be grey.

But your (C)pic ture on my the wall, And it re minds me that it’s (Fmaj7)not so bad, it’s not so bad.

And

I drank too (Fmaj7)much last night, got why (Em)bills I to pay.

My head just feels in all.

I missed the bus and there’ll be win dow to day; I’m late for work a gain.

And e ven if I’m there, they ’ll all im ply that I (C)might not on my the day.

And then you call me and it’s (Fmaj7)not so bad, it’s not so bad.

And

(C)I

want to (Fmaj7)thank you

for (F)giv ing me the (C)best day

(C7)of my (Fmaj7)life.

And, (C)oh,

just to (Fmaj7)be with you

is hav ing the (Em7)best day

of my (Dm7)life.

Push the door; I’m home at last, and I’m soak ing (F)through and through.

And then you hand ed me a towel,

and all I see is you.

And e ven if my house falls down now, I would n’t have a clue

be cause you’re (Dm7)near me.

And (C)I

want to (Fmaj7)thank you

for (F)giv ing me the (C)best day

of (C7)my (Fmaj7)life.

And, (C)oh,

just to (Fmaj7)be with you

is (F)hav ing the (Em7)best day

of my (Dm7)life.

And (C)I

want to (Fmaj7)thank you

for (F)giv ing me the (C)best day

of (C7)my (Fmaj7)life.

And, (C)oh,

just to (Fmaj7)be with you
