Verse 1:
C A7
What a day for a daydream
Dm7 G7
[1: What a day 4: Custom-made] for a daydreamin' boy
C A7 [acoustic guitar enters 1st time]
And I'm lost in a daydream
Dm7 G7
Dreamin' bout my bundle of joy
Chorus 1:
F D7/F# C A7
And even if time ain't really on my side
F D7/F# C A7
It's one of those days for takin' a walk outside
F D7/F# C A7
I'm blowin' the day to take a walk in the sun
G [C/G] G7 [C/G] [electric only]
And fall on my face on somebody's new-mowed lawn
Verse 2:
I been havin' a sweet dream
I been dreamin' since I woke up today
It's starring me and my sweet dream
'Cause she's the one that makes me feel this way
Chorus 2:
And even if time is passin' me by a lot
I couldn't care less about the dues you say I've got
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for dropping my load
A pie in the face for bein' a sleepy bull toad
[whistling over verse chords]
Chorus 3:
And you can be sure that if you're feelin' right
A daydream will last 'til long into the night
Tomorrow at breakfast you may prick up your ears
Or you may be daydreamin' for a thousand years
[repeat verse 1]
[whistling over chorus chords; fade]
