Chords

In the verses, switch from G to C with a hammer on to the 1st fret of the B (2nd) string. Listen to the recording to get the right feel. In the choruses, at the line "We all sing the same old song" try walking up from A to B to C to match the dynamic on the recording. [Intro]
G       C              G            C
I could tell from the minute I woke up

                   G             C            G  C
it was gonna be a lonely lonely lonely lonely day

G       C             G              C
Rise and shine, rub the sleep out of my eyes

            G             C               G  Gsus4
and try to tell myself I can't go back to bed.

It's gonna be a lonely lonely lonely lonely day
G C G C G C G C [Verse]
G       C              G               C
Even though the sun is shinin' down on me

             G             C            G  C
and I should feel about as happy as can be

G       C             G              C
I just got here and I already want to leave

            G             C               G  Gsus4
It's gonna be a lonely lonely lonely lonely day

                 Am            D             G
It's gonna be a lonely lonely lonely lonely day

It's gonna be a lonely lonely lonely lonely day
[Chorus]
           Em                   A7
Everybody knows that somethin's wrong

            Em              A7
But nobody knows what's goin on

        C                 G
We all sing that same old song

          D
When you want it all to go away

                                G
it's shaping up to be a lonely day

it was gonna be a lonely lonely lonely lonely day

                  Am            D             G
It was gonna be a lonely lonely lonely lonely day
[Chorus]
           Em                   A7
Everybody knows that somethin's wrong

            Em              A7
But nobody knows what's goin' on

        C                 G
We all sing that same old song

          D
When you want it all to go away

it's shaping up to be a lonely day
