[Intro]
Ab Bb Cm7 Gm7
Ab Bb Ebmaj7 Gm7
[Verse 1]
Fm7 Bb7
I think about that day I left him at a Greyhound station
Ebmaj7 C7
West of Sante Fe, we were seventeen
Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7
but he was sweet and it was true, still I did what I had to do
Cm7
'Cuz I just knew
Fm7 Bb7
Summer Sunday nights we'd sink into our seats
Ebmaj7
Right as they dimmed out all the lights
C7 Fm7
The Technicolor world made out of music and machine
Bb7 Ebmaj7
It called me to be on that screen
Cm7 C7
And live inside its sheen
[Pre-chorus]
Ab
Without a nickel to my name
Bb
Hopped a bus, here I came
Cm7
Could be brave or just insane
Gm7
We'll have to see
Ab
'Cuz maybe in that sleepy town
Bb
He'll sit one day, the lights are down
Eb G7
He'll see my face and think of how he used to know me
[Chorus]
Ab Bb Cm7
Behind these hills I'm reaching for the heights
Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7
And chasing all the lights that shine
Cm7 Bb
And when they let you down (it's another day of sun)
Cm7 Bb
You'll get up off the ground (it's another day of sun)
Cm7 Bb Ebmaj G7
As morning rolls around and it's another day of sun
[Verse 2]
Fm7
I hear them everyday
Bb7 Ebmaj7
The rhythms in the canyons that will never fade away
C7 Fm7
The ballads in the ballrooms left by those who came before
Bb7 Ebmaj7 Cm7 C7
They say we got to want it more so I bang on every door
[Pre-chorus]
Ab
And even when the answer's no
Bb
Or when my money's running low
Cm7 Gm7
The disc and mic and neon glow are all I need
Ab
And some day as I sing the song
Bb
A small-town kid will come along
Ebmaj7 G7
That'll be the thing to push him on and he'll go
[Chorus]
Ab Bb Cm7
Behind these hills I'm reaching for the heights
Fm7 Bb7 Ebmaj7
And chasing all the lights that shine
Cm7 Bb
And when they let you down (it's another day of sun)
Cm7 Bb
You'll get up off the ground (it's another day of sun)
Cm7 Bb Ebmaj G7
As morning rolls around and it's another day of sun
[Instrumental]
Ab Bb Cm7 Gm7
Ab Bb Ebmaj7 Gm7 (2x)
[Bridge]
Cm7 Bb
When they let you down
Cm7 Bb7
The morning rolls around
[Outro]
A B
It's another day of sun
C#m B
It's another day of sun

It's another day of sun

Just another day of sun

It's another day of sun

The day has just begun...

It's another day of sun

It's another day of sun
