Misc Originals – Agnes Goldade - What A Day (Guitar)

A                                       D
The day finally came when I turned fourteen

        A                               D
And I could learn to drive my daddy big Ford

A                                       D
Dreamed so often how exciting it would be

A               E          A
Driving round in my hot rod

A                                       D
The next I remember that the door bell rang

        A                       D
And then a man said “ready to go”?

A                               D
Must a been floating on air that day

A               E          A
No one could’ve kept me at home

E               B               A                       E
What a day that was as the walls came tumbling down on me

        G#m                                     C#
My eyes were a popping and my knees were a knocking

        B                               E
And my heart I was sure was surely gonna stop

A                       D                       A
All the cars I’d see were coming straight for me

        D               A               E               A
I never will forget the day of my very first driving lesson

A                                       D
I drove down the street and made a left hand turn

                A                       D
We were headen for the busy street of town

A                                       D
Forgot to signal but the man just smiled

A                       E         A
Got his book quickly wrote it down

A                                       D
I felt kinda faint I started loosing my cool

                A               D
Suddenly I go a bit of the shakes

A                               D
I just about hit a car on the right

A               E          A
Down slammed my foot on the brake

E               B               A                       E
What a day that was as the walls came tumbling down on me

        G#m                                     C#
My eyes were a popping and my knees were a knocking

        B                               E
And my heart I was sure was surely gonna stop

A                       D                       A
All the cars I’d see were coming straight for me

        D               A               E               A
I never will forget the day of my very first driving lesson

A                       D
Watch the car the light is red

                A               D
Proceed with care, no parking here

A                                       D
A one way street should change your lane

A       E          A
Look left before you stop

A                               D
Watch your speed the light is green

                A               D
Slow down again here come a train

A                       D
Pull in and park its getting dark

A       E          A

My eyes were a popping and my knees were a knocking
