One long day Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Em]
[B][A]

[Verse 1]
City [Em]life is closing
[A]in on [Em]me[Asus4]
The [Em]way things go, t[Bb]hirty years,
[A]Bus [D]timetable'll be [Em]my elegy

[Verse 2]
[Em][B][A]
Up at [Em]seven every [A]working day
[Asus4]Pay comes in, pay g[Em]oes out[Bb]
It's a [A]week- [D]by- week [Em]charade

[Verse 3]
[Em][B]
General [F#m]panic in the [B]marketplace
[C]Boss found hung in office
[B]Could not [D]stand [Em]the pace

[Verse 4]
[Em]
[B]And as the pea[Bm]k- hour traffic
[F#m]jams bel[B]ow[Em]
[C]Someone gets the story,
someone spreads [B]the rumour[D][Em]

[Verse 5]
People come and go
[Em]
You go to move
You got to go
[A]You go [Em]to be somebody
And you've got to roll
[A]You got to [Em]stop
[G]You got[Em] to change
[A]You got[Em] to make a little money
And be a little [A]strange

[Verse 6]
I wandered [Em]down along the [A]river last night
Call me romantic,
[Em]I sa[Bb]y I couldn't sleep
[Asus4]'Til the first- li[D]ght struck me[Em] down
[D][Esus4][D][Em]

[Verse 7]
[A]
Padding [Em]homeward on the
inside [A]lane[D][A][Asus4]
Early [Em]morning, the [Bb]freeway's cool [A]and quiet
[D]Dodging rub[Em]ber stains
[Esus4][D][Em][Bm]

[Verse 8]
[B]
People [F#m]talking in a [B]seaside bar
[C]I ain't sentimental, but Lord
Sometimes I get [Em]that gypsy urge to travel far

[Verse 9]
[B]You know I'll disappear
some long weekend
[C]Find a mangrove landscape
Stretch out along [B]some busted [D]jetty
[Em]Forget who I am
[D][Em]

[Verse 10]
You go to move
You got to go
[A]You go [D]to be [Em]somebody
[Bm]And you got to r[Em]oll
[A]You got[Em] to stop
You got to change
[A]You got to mak[Em]e a little money
And be a little [A]strange[F#m]

[Interlude 1]
[Ebdim]
[F#m][C#]
[C#m][C#][C#m][F#m]

[Verse 11]
One long [B]day
Is all it [A]takes to steal [C]her heart [B]away[Em]
One long [F#m]night
[E]It's all rig[D]ht,
you've done [C#]it again[G#m]
And soft, [F#m]low words
[E]The slender lad[D]ies,
[D#dim]beneath the cafe fans[E][Bb][Am]
One long day
[F][E][Dm][C#]

[Verse 12]
[F#m]
Layed by [B]dreams
Cotton [A]dresses,
a Spanish [C]border [B]town[Em]
Dreams so [F#m]far
[E]From the subway[D]s,
the [C#]crowds heading [G#m]home
Close each [F#m]day
[E]In tec[D]hnicolor, a mil[D#dim]lion
[E]miles [Bb]away[Am]
One long [F]night [E]and you're
[Am]alone

[Verse 13]
[C#]
[G#]Meanwhile
City [B]ways[A]
Life [D#]goes [G#m]creeping [G#]on
[C#]Sometimes[G#]
I get the [B]blues
[A]Lord I get the [D#]blues so bad
[G#m][C#m][C#]
[G#]Meanwhile
City [B]ways,
[A]Lonely life goes [D#]creeping
[G#m]on[G#]
[C#]Sometimes[G#]
I get [B]the blues
[A]Lord I get the blues so [D#]bad
Know [G#m]I get the blues so [C#m]bad[C#]
And [C#]mean[G#]while
City [B]ways, [A]lonely life goes
[D#]creeping [G#m]on
And on and on, on [G#m]and on[C#][C#]
[G#]Sometimes, I get [B]the blues
[A]Lord, [D#]Lord I get the blues [G#m]so bad
So [C#m]bad, so bad
So bad
