VERSE 1
********
C#m A Ab
I must have left my house at eight, because I always do
Ab Ab C#m
My train i,m certain left the station just when it was due
C#m C#m B
I must have read the morning paper going into town
B B B E
Having gotten through the editorial, no doubt i,m I must have frowned
E E E B
I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine
B B B E
With letters to be read, and heaps of papers waiting to be signed
-------------------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
E A A Ab C#m
I must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or so
F#m F#m
The usual place, the usual bunch
F# F#m Ab
And still on top of this I'm pretty sure it must have rained
C#m
The day before you came
-------------------------------------------
VERSE 2
********
C#m A Ab
I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two
Ab C#m
And at the time I never even noticed I was blue
C#m B
I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day
B E
Without really knowing anything, I hid a part of me away
E B
At five I must have left, there's no exception to the rule
B E
A matter of routine, I've done it ever since I finished school
-------------------------------------------
BRIDGE
*******
A
The train back home again
C#m F#m
Undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper then
F#m Ab
Oh yes, I'm sure my life was well within its usual frame
C#m
The day before you came
C#m Ab
Ohhhhh ohhh ohhh
F#m B C#m
Ohhhhhhhhh hhhhhh
C#m C#m Ab C#m
Ahhhhh Ahhhhh Ahhhh Ahhhhh
-------------------------------------------
VERSE 3
********
C#m A Ab
I must have opened my front door at eight o'clock or so
Ab C#m
And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go
C#m B
I'm sure I had my dinner watching something on TV
B E
There's not, I think, a single episode of Dallas that I didn't see
E B
I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten
B E
I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in bed by then
-------------------------------------------
CHORUS
*******
E A Ab E F#m
I must have read a while the latest one by Marilyn French or something in that style
F#m Ab
It's funny, but I had no sense of living without aim
C#m
The day before you came
-------------------------------------------
BRIDGE
*******
A
And turning out the light
C#m F#m
I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night
F#m Ab
And rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain
C#m
The day before you came
C#m Ab
Ohhhhh ohhh ohhh
F# C#m
Ohhhhhhhhh hhhhhh
A C#m C#m Ab C#m
Ahhhhh Ahhhhh Ahhhh Ahhhhh Ahhhhh
ENJOY...........
