CALENDAR DAYS by DICK DIVER
===========================
Note: I've written F for simplicity's sake -
it's generally an Fmaj7 (e.g. 1x3210) in the recording,
but either chord sounds good.

Am G C F
F G C /
VERSE 1:
Am G C
It's a high-beam drive and I think of you sitting at home
F G C
Your dad's TV Weeks stacked to the window
Am G
And before I knock I just catch your face
C F
Washed in a Panadol light
F G
I'd let you know that I'd be here
C
That's not my style
CHORUS 1:
D F C
And way all up and down the line
D F
Standard time, standard time
C F G
White metal on a wet, black drive
Am
They're all calendar days
F G
But you try to break out
BRIDGE:
Bb F
And that old best friend is a Zamels ad
C
Bleeding ink on wet pavement
G
Or blazing on a model hand
Bb
And there's a kind of quiet
F
A fighter jet's applause
C
They're all saw-toothed fragments
G
Scattered in an empty hall
VERSE 2:
Am G C
And I'm reminded of a rewinding cassette
F G C
As tyre rubber comes blooming around your legs
Am G C F
And I'm waking up and the sky is pure appliance white
F G C
A day as true as TV cop flashbacks
CHORUS 2:
D F C
And way all up and down the line
D F
Standard time, standard time
C F G
White metal on a wet, black drive
Am
They're all calendar days
F G
But you try to break out
