[Intro]
D Bm G A
[Verses]
D
I slept through the night, I got through to the dawn
Bm
I flipped a switch and the light went on
G
I got out of bed and I put some clothes on
A
Was a pretty good day so far
D
I turned the tap, there was cold, there was hot
Bm
I put on my coat to go to the shop
G
I stepped outside, and I didn't get shot
A
Was a pretty good day so far
D
I didn't hear any sirens or explosions
Bm
No mortars coming in from those heavy guns
G
No UN tanks, I didn't see one
A
It's a pretty good day so far
D
No snipers in windows, taking a peek
Bm
No people panicked, running scared through the streets
G
I didn't see any bodies without arms, legs, or feet
A
It's a pretty good day
D
There was plasma, bandages and electricity
Bm
Food, wood and water, and the air was smoke-free
G
No camera crews from ITV
A
(Instrumental)
D
It was all such a strange sight to behold
Bm
Nobody was frightened, wounded, hungry or cold
G
and the children seemed normal, they didn't look old
A
pretty good day so far
D
I walked through a park, you would not believe it
Bm
There in the park, there were a few trees left
G
and on some branches, there were a few leaves
A
D
I slept through the night, I got through to the dawn
Bm
I flipped a switch and the light went on
G
I wrote down my dream, I made it this song
A D
Was a pretty good day so far
