Day After Tomorrow

• Verse 1

Verse 1
            C  Fmaj7    C   Fmaj7
I got your letter today
      Am7              Em7
And I miss you all so much here
        C  Fmaj7            C   Fmaj7
I can't wait to see you all
        Am7          Em7
And I'm counting the days here


Chorus
         Dm                  C
I still believe that there's gold
       Am         Fmaj7
At the end of the world
               C   Fmaj7      C    Fmaj7
And I'll come home to Illinois
       Am7         Em7 C
On the day after tomorrow


Verse 2
             C   Fmaj7    C   Fmaj7
And it's so hard and it's cold here
        Am7             Em7
And I'm tired of taking orders
      C  Fmaj7          C   Fmaj7
And I miss old Rockford town
          Am7          Em7
Up by the Wisconsin border


Chorus
       Dm                 C
What I miss, you won't believe
          Am         Fmaj7
Shoveling snow and raking leaves
       C   Fmaj7         C    Fmaj7
And my plane will touch down
       Am7         Em7 C
On the day after tomorrow


Verse 3
           C   Fmaj7    C   Fmaj7
I close my eyes every night
      Am7             Em7
And I dream that I can hold you
      C  Fmaj7       C     Fmaj7
They fill us full of lies, everyone buys
              Am7          Em7
About what it means to be a soldier


Chorus
              Dm                 C
I still don't know how I'm supposed to feel
              Am         Fmaj7
About all the blood that's been spilled
     C   Fmaj7  C    Fmaj7
Will God on his throne get me back home
       Am7         Em7 C
On the day after tomorrow?


Verse 4
          C   Fmaj7    C   Fmaj7
You can't deny, the other side
            Am7             Em7
Don't want to die any more than we do
         C  Fmaj7       C     Fmaj7
What I'm trying to say is, don't they pray
       Am7          Em7
To the same God that we do?


Chorus
        Dm                 C
Tell me how does God choose
       Am         Fmaj7
Whose prayers does he refuse?
              C   Fmaj7  C    Fmaj7
Who turns the wheel? Who throws the dice
       Am7         Em7 C
On the day after tomorrow?


Bridge
N.C.
Silent night, holy night
N.C.
All is calm, all is bright


Verse 5
         C   Fmaj7    C   Fmaj7
I am not fighting for justice
          Am7             Em7
I am not fighting for freedom
     C  Fmaj7       C     Fmaj7
I am fighting for my life
            Am7          Em7
And another day in the world here


Chorus
        Dm                 C
I just do what I've been told
           Am         Fmaj7
We're just the gravel on the road
       C   Fmaj7  C    Fmaj7
And only the lucky ones come home
        Am7         Em7 C
On the day after tomorrow


Verse 6
        C   Fmaj7    C   Fmaj7
And the summer, it too will fade
       Am7             Em7
And with it brings the winter's frost, dear
       C  Fmaj7       C     Fmaj7
And I know we too are made
           Am7               Em7
Of all the things that we have lost here


Chorus
        Dm                 C
I'll be twenty-one today
       Am         Fmaj7
I been saving all my pay
       C   Fmaj7  C    Fmaj7
And my plane will touch down
       Am7         Em7 C
On the day after tomorrow
       C   Fmaj7  C    Fmaj7
And my plane, it will touch down
       Am7         Em7 C
On the day after tomorrow
