Intro: GCG
The sun is shining, making this room so bright
G/F#EmC
And the cats are sleeping, right up on the table
D
Breaking all the rules in plain sight
GC
There's a cloud coloured moon floating in the blue
Am7D
Not waiting for the sun to go away
GC
I just wish I could walk with you and talk with you
DG
All the live long day
CG
We never really had a winter, it never came and now it's gone
G/F#EmC
And the days grow longer, like a late night road
D
Like the odds you'll come back home
GC
But I don't mind wasting my time
Am7D
Waiting for the ache to go away
GC
I don't mind telling you it's what I do
DG
All the live long day
Chorus:
DG
All the live long day
AmGD
I wonder what I'll do
G
I don't see no way
AmGD
Of getting over you
GCG
The boys were in the back field, sorting out the who and when
G/F#EmC
It's like cat graf-fiti, but they read it with their nose
D
And it's written from the other end
GC
Though James takes it in with a different spin
Am7D
He likes to read the Sniff and Spray
GC
It's just them and me, and my ennui
DG
All the live long day
Chorus:
DG
All the live long day
AmGD
I wonder what I'll do
G
I don't see no way
AmGD
Of getting over you
Instrumental: GAmGDGAmGD
N.C. GCG
I was watching the sunset, wishing you were watching too
G/F#Em
Through the winter branches
CD
Drop jaw red, Maxfield Parrish blue
GC
And then a windy night with the stars so bright
Am7D
The trees just bow and sway
GC
I been close to blue and missing you
DG
All the live long day
C
I been close to blue and missing you
DGCDG
All the live long day
