Tomorrows Gonna Be A Brighter Day
Jim Croce
Text File
The current tab on this site and most other sites is in the wrong key. I have
transposed it to the key of E, which is also the starting note of the song.
intro
E E G# B C#
F# F# G# B C#
Then just play around in the key of E and A for the little fills inbetween lines.
Well, I'm
[E]sorry for the [E7]things I [A]told you, but
[E]words only [E7]go so [A]far. And if I
[E]had my way I would [F#m7]reach into heaven and I'd
[C#m]pull you [D]down a [A]star for a present. And I'd
[E]make you a chain out of [A]diamonds or
[F#m7]pearls from a [D]summer sea. [A]But
[E]all I can give you is a [F#m7]kiss in the mornin' and a
[C#m]sweet a[D]pology.
[a]
[E] [a]
[E] [a]Well, I
[E]know that it hasn't been eas[A]y. And I
[E]haven't always been around [A]to
[E]say the right words, or to [F#m7]hold you in the mornin', or to
[C#m]help you [D]when you're down. [A]I know I
[E]never showed you much of a good [A]time, but baby
[F#m7]things are [D]gonna change. [A]I'm gonna
[E]make up for all of the [F#m7]hurt I brought, I'm gonna
[C#m]love away [D]all your pain.
Chorus:
[A]And To-
[E]morrow's gonna [C#m]be a brighter day;
[F#m7]there's gonna [B7]be some changes. To-
[E]morrow's gonna [C#m]be a brighter day;
[F#m7]this [B7]time you can believe me.
[E]No more cryin' in your [A]lonely room,
[F#m7]no more [D]empty [A]nights, 'Cause to-
[E]morrow mornin' [F#m7]everything'll [B7]turn out
[E]right. [a]
[E] [A]Well there's
[E]something that I gotta tell [A]you; yes I
[E]got something on my [A]mind. But
[E]words come hard when you're [F#m7]lyin' in my arms, and when I'm
[C#m]lookin' deep in[D]to your [A]eyes. But there's
[E]truth and consola[A]tion in
[F#m7]what I'm [D]tryin' to [A]say, is that
[E]nobody ever had a [F#m7]rainbow, baby un-
[C#m]til he [D]had the rain. //half measure
