Any Old Kind Of Day Chords & Lyrics - Harry Chapin

[INTRO]
[E] - [B7] - [E] - [Emaj7] - [A] - [E] - [E7]

[A]Turning on my pil[B]low, [E]thinking kind of stra[A]nge

[Bm6]The color is of mid[C#7]night in this ro[F#m7]om [B7]

[A]The cars outside are coug[B]hing and it's [E]kinda hard to slee[A]p

[G#m]And there's neon out the win[C#m]dow, not the m[B7]oon.

[A]And it was just an any old[B] kind of day

[E]The kind that comes and s[A]lips away

[E]The kind that fills up [G#m]easy my life's [F#m]time [B7]

The [A]night brought any old [B7]kind of dark

I h[E]eard the ticking of [A]my heart

[E] [G#m] [F#m7] [B7](sus4)
Then why am I thinking something's left behind'

[A]I whistled round tod[B]ay and I s[E]kipped a footloose ji[A]g

To the [Bm6]hurdy-gurdy mus[C#7]ic of the [F#m7]street

I l[A]ooked up past those [B]rooftops, and [E]saw that cloudless sk[A]y

[G#m7]But I keep on asking w[Amaj7]hy

[G#m7]My life is passing[Amaj7] by

[G#m7]And I'm left up high an[Amaj7]d dry

[G#m7]But it ain't no good to[Amaj7] cry

[G#m7]So I shrug the useless[Amaj7] sigh

And I[C#m7] trust to things that ot[B7]her days will [E]meet.

And it was [A]just an any old [B]kind of day

The [E]kind that comes and [A]slips away

[E]The kind that fills up e[G#m]asy my life's [F#m]time [B7]

[D]The night brought any old[B7] kind of dark

[E]I heard the ticking of [A]my heart

[E] [G#m] [F#m7] [B7](sus4) [E]
Then why am I thinking something's left behind'

[INTERLUDE]
[E] - [B7] - [E] - [Emaj7] - [A] - [E] - [E7]

[A]The night has had it's lau[B]ghing

[E]When street lights [A]blind the stars

[Bm6]So now it's shedding ra[C#7]in

To sing its [F#m7]sorrow (sor[B7]row)

It's[A] time for me to sle[B]ep and to [E]rest these thoughts awa[A]y

There's gonn[G#m7]a be another [Amaj7]day

[G#m7]When things will go m[Amaj7]y way

And there[G#m7]'s other things [Amaj7]to say

And there'[G#m7]s other songs to[Amaj7] play

And there'll be[C#m7] time enough for [B7]thinking come t[E]omorrow.

And it was [A]just an any old [B]kind of day

The [E]kind that comes and [A]slips away

[E]The kind that fills up e[G#m]asy my life's [F#m]time [B7]

[D]The night brought any old[B7] kind of dark

[E]I heard the ticking of [A]my heart

[E] [G#m] [F#m7] [B7](sus4) [E]
Then why am I thinking something's left behind'

[B7] [E]
