The Day Before You Came (ver. 2)

• Cm

Intro: Cm x4 
 
  Cm                                                 Ab                   G 
I must have left my house at eight because I always do 
 
                                                                                 Cm 
My train I'm certain left the station just when it was due 
 
                                                                         Bb 
I must have read the morning paper going into town 
 
                                                                    Bb/D                  Eb 
And having gotten through the editorial no doubt I must have frowned 
 
                                                                            Bb 
I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine 
 
                                                                                        Eb 
With letters to be read and heaps of papers waiting to be signed 
 
   Ab 
I must have gone to lunch 
 
   Eb/G                                           Fm 
at half past twelve or so The usual place the usual bunch 
 
                                                   Dm7/b5                 G 
And still on top of this I'm pretty sure it must have rained 
 
                        Cm 
The day before you came 
 
 
I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two 
And at the time I never even noticed I was blue 
I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day 
Without really knowing anything I hid a part of me away 
At five I must have left there's no exception to the rule 
A matter of routine I've done it ever since I finished school 
The train back home again 
Undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper then 
Oh yes I'm sure my life was well within it's usual frame 
The day before you came 
 
Instrumental part with Frida doing opera: 
 
|Cm|  |Bdimx2|   
 
|Abdim|  |G|  |Cm|  |Cm| 
 
|Adim|  |Adim|  |Cm/G|  |Cm/G| 
 
|Gsus4|  |G|  |Cm|  |Cm| 
 
 
I must have opened my front door at eight o'clock or so 
And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go 
I'm sure I had my dinner watching something on TV 
There's not I think a single episode of Dallas that I didn't see 
I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten 
I need a lot of sleep and so I like to be in bed by then 
I must have read a while 
The latest one by Marilyn French or something in that style 
It's funny but I had no sense of living without aim 
The day before you came 
 
And turning out the light 
I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night 
And rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain 
The day before you came 
 
(Instrumental Part again)
