Misc Musicals – Next To Normal - Just Another Day (Guitar)

   Em                                   G
They're the perfect loving family, so adoring

   Em                               G
And I love them every day of every week

   Am                                    C
So my son's a little shit, my husband's boring

   Am                                   Em
And my daughter, though a genius, is a freak

      C
Still I help them love each other

       F
Father mother sister brother

     Dsus  D
Cheek to cheek

  Em                                     G
So it's times like these I wonder how I take it,

  Em                                  G
And if other families live the way we do.

   Am                                    C
If they love each other or if they just fake it,

   Am                                    Em
And if other daughters feel like I feel too.

     C
Cause some days I think I'm dying,

    F                                 D
But I'm really only trying to get through

              Am     C    G
For just another day,

   Am       C       G
for another stolen hour

   Am    C   Dsus       G    C    G
When the world will feel my power and obey

   Am      C     G
It's just another day

    Am  C   G
Feeling like I'll live forever

     Em   F
Feeling like this feeling never goes away

     Em
For just another day.

 Em                                      G
When it's up to you to hold your house together

    Em                                    G
A house you built with patience and with care

   Am                                       C
But you're grappling with that gray and rainy weather

     Am                               C
And you're living on a latte and a prayer

 C
Can you keep the cup from tipping

     F    Dsus      D
Can you keep your grip from slipping in despair,

   Am  C  G
For just another day,

  Am   C     G
In the hustle and the hurry

  Am    C  Dsus   G C G
And you want to wipe your worry clean away

 Am  C  G
It's just another day

   Am  C     G
I will keep the plates all spinning

  Em     Asus  A
With a smile so white and winning all the way

   C
Cause what doesn't kill me doesn't kill me

   D
So fill me up for just another day.

   D
It only hurts when I breathe.

 Am
It only hurts when I think.

  D
It only hurts when I cry.

   G
It only hurts when I work.

   D
It only hurts when I play.

   G
It only hurts when I move.

   Dsus  D
It only hurts when I say,

  Am  C  G
It's just another day

  Am  C   G
When the morning sun is stunning

    Am C    Dsus   G C G
And you wish that you were running far away

   Am  C  G
It's just another day

     Am C   G
Birds are singing, things are growing

    Em
And you wish you could be going,

   A
But you'll stay

  C
You'll stay

   G D    C    G  D
Every day is just another and another and another

  Am C  G
I will hold it all together

  Am   C  G
We're the perfect loving family

   Am   C   G
If they say we're not then fuck 'em

 Am    C          G
The perfect loving family

  Em
I will keep the plates all spinning

A
I think the house is spinning.
