[Verse 1]
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
Someone woke me up this mornin'
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|--------------------------| G|----------12-------10-----|--------------------------| D|--------------------------|-11b12b11----8------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
And I lit a cigarette
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
Found myself when I stopped yawnin'
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|--------------------------| G|----------12-------10-----|--------------------------| D|--------------------------|-11b12b11----8------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
Started getting myself dressed
[Chorus]
Rhythm Guitar (Chorus):
e|--2------2------2---2-----|-3------3------3---3------| B|--3------3------3---3-----|-0------0------0---0------| G|--2------2------2---2-----|-0------0------0---0------| D|--0------0------0---0-----|-0------0------0---0------| A|--------------------------|-2------2------2---2------| E|--------------------------|-3------3------3---3------|
Then I felt that I had a dream
e|--2------2------2---2-----|-3------3------3---3------| B|--3------3------3---3-----|-0------0------0---0------| G|--2------2------2---2-----|-0------0------0---0------| D|--0------0------0---0-----|-0------0------0---0------| A|--------------------------|-2------2------2---2------| E|--------------------------|-3------3------3---3------|
I remembered the things that I'd seen
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
I could still hear the things you said
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|--------------------------| G|----------12-------10-----|--------------------------| D|--------------------------|-11b12b11----8------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
With that bad dream in my head
[Bridge]
It was a sad day, bad day
Sad day, bad day
[Verse 2]
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
So I called you on the phone
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|--------------------------| G|----------12-------10-----|--------------------------| D|--------------------------|-11b12b11----8------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
And your friend said, "She's not home"
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
So I told her where I'd be at
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|--------------------------| G|----------12-------10-----|--------------------------| D|--------------------------|-11b12b11----8------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
And that you should call me back
[Chorus]
e|--2------2------2---2-----|-3------3------3---3------| B|--3------3------3---3-----|-0------0------0---0------| G|--2------2------2---2-----|-0------0------0---0------| D|--0------0------0---0-----|-0------0------0---0------| A|--------------------------|-2------2------2---2------| E|--------------------------|-3------3------3---3------|
Then I looked at the morning mail
e|--2------2------2---2-----|-3------3------3---3------| B|--3------3------3---3-----|-0------0------0---0------| G|--2------2------2---2-----|-0------0------0---0------| D|--0------0------0---0-----|-0------0------0---0------| A|--------------------------|-2------2------2---2------| E|--------------------------|-3------3------3---3------|
I was not even expecting a bill
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
Your letter a-started, "Dear"
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|--------------------------| G|----------12-------10-----|--------------------------| D|--------------------------|-11b12b11----8------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
And it left me with these tears
[Bridge]
It was a sad day, bad day
Sad day, bad day
[Verse 3]
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
Think of the times that we had rows
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|--------------------------| G|----------12-------10-----|--------------------------| D|--------------------------|-11b12b11----8------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
But we patched them up somehow
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
Think of the times I tried to go
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|--------------------------| G|----------12-------10-----|--------------------------| D|--------------------------|-11b12b11----8------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
But you screamed and told me no
[Chorus]
e|--2------2------2---2-----|-3------3------3---3------| B|--3------3------3---3-----|-0------0------0---0------| G|--2------2------2---2-----|-0------0------0---0------| D|--0------0------0---0-----|-0------0------0---0------| A|--------------------------|-2------2------2---2------| E|--------------------------|-3------3------3---3------|
There is only one thing in this world
e|--2------2------2---2-----|-3------3------3---3------| B|--3------3------3---3-----|-0------0------0---0------| G|--2------2------2---2-----|-0------0------0---0------| D|--0------0------0---0-----|-0------0------0---0------| A|--------------------------|-2------2------2---2------| E|--------------------------|-3------3------3---3------|
That I can't understand, that's a girl
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
I keep a-readin' the things you said
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|--------------------------| G|----------12-------10-----|--------------------------| D|--------------------------|-11b12b11----8------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
Like a bad dream in my head
[Bridge]
It was a sad day, bad day
Sad day, bad day
(Electric Guitar:) e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
Oh, what a sad, sad old day
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
A sad old day, it was a sad old day

A sad old day, it was a bad old day
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------------------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|--------------------------| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
A sad old day, a bad old day
[Chorus]
e|--2------2------2---2-----|-3------3------3---3------| B|--3------3------3---3-----|-0------0------0---0------| G|--2------2------2---2-----|-0------0------0---0------| D|--0------0------0---0-----|-0------0------0---0------| A|--------------------------|-2------2------2---2------| E|--------------------------|-3------3------3---3------|
If there is one awful thing in this world

That I can't understand, that's a girl
[Bridge]
e|--------------------------|--------------------------| B|-11-----------------------|-11-----------11----------| G|---------10--12--10--12---|------10--12------10--12--| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|
