[Intro 1]
[D][F#m][Em][A][D][G]

[Verse 1]
Turning on my pil[A]low,
[D]thinking kind of [G]strange.
[Am]The color is of mi[A]dnight[B] in this[Em] room.[A]
[G]The cars outside are[A] coughing and
it's [D]kind of hard [G]to sleep
and there's [F#m]neon out the w[Bm]in dow,
not the moon.
[A]

[Verse 2]
And it was [G]just an any old [A]kind of day,
[D]The kind that comes and [G]slips away,
[D]The kind that fills up eas[F#m]y
my life's [Em]time.[G][A]
[G]The night brought any old [A]kind of dark,
I [D]heard the ticking [G]of my heart.
Then [D]why'm I [F#m]thinking
[Em]somethings [A]left be[D]hind?

[Verse 3]
[G]
I whistled round [A]today and
[D]I skipped off a footloose [G]jig
to [Am]the hurdy gurdy mu[B]sic of [Em]the street.[A]
I [G]looked past those [A]rooftops and
[D]I saw the cloudless [G]sky,
But [F#m]I keep on asking [G]why my
[F#m]life is passing b[G]y,
And I'm [F#m]left up high and[G] dry,
But it [F#m]ain't no good [G]to cry,
So I [F#m]shrug my useless [G]sigh,
And I [Bm]trust to things that
oth[A]er days will [D]meet.

[Verse 4]
And it was [G]just an any old [A]kind of day,
[D]The kind that comes an[G]d slips away,
[D]The kind that fills up eas[F#m]y
my life's [Em]time.[G][A]
[G]The night brought any old [A]kind of dark,
I [D]heard the ticking [G]of my heart.
Then [D]why'm I [F#m]thinking [Em]somethings
[A]left be[D]hind?

[Interlude 1]
[D][F#m][A][D][G]

[Verse 5]
The night has had [A]it's laughing,
[D]when the street lig[F#m]hts bli[G]nd the sta[Am]rs,
So now it's shedding [B]rain
to sing it's [Em]sorrow,[A]
It's [G]time for me [A]to sleep and to [D]rest
these thoughts [G]away,
There's gonna [F#m]be another day[G], hey!
[F#m]when things will go m[G]y way,
And there's [F#m]other things [G]to say,
And there's [F#m]other songs [G]to play,
And there'll be [Bm]time enough
[A]for thinking come to[D]morrow.
[Dm]

[Verse 6]
[D]And it was jus[G]t an any
old [A]kind of day,
[D]The kind that comes an[G]d slips away,
[D]The kind that fills up eas[F#m]y
my life's [Em]time.[A]
[G]The night brought any old [A]kind of dark,
I [D]heard the ticking [G]of my heart.
Then [D]why'm I [F#m]thinking [Em]somethings
[A]left be[D]hind?

[Outro 1]
