Tab Realm

Day After Day by Joni Mitchell

 
                            Day After Day 


Tuning:E A D G B E
Key:Cm
Capo:no capo

This version could be simplified by transposing down 3 steps (Am) & adding a capo on the 3rd fret,
but I think it sounds truer played as tabbed here. The Cm7, Cm6, C9, Csus4 frills could also be dropped
for simplification, but chord shapes if included are:

Cm7: x35347
Cm6: x35x46 (or x35346)
Csus4: x35563
C9: x35533

Hummin' of the wheels

Their hummin' seems to say

He'll follow you someday

Lie awake and dream

Of days of auld-lang-syne

Moonlight through the pine

And linen table cloths all stained with wine

Searching for my soul
   Eb              Gm
So this must be my fate

To sit and weep and wait
    Eb              Gm      G        Cm  C9 Cm C C9 Cm C9  C
And pray my darlin' comes before too late
