...GREY DAY... by Madness
--------------...........
*from 'Seven' (1981)*
Intro:
Gm A A7
Verse 1:
Gm
When I get home, it's late at night,
Am
I'm black and bloody from my life.
Gm
I haven't time to clean my hands;
Am Gm A A7
Cuts will only sting me, through my dreams.
Verse 2:
Gm
It's well past midnight as I lie,
Am
In a semi-conscious state.
Gm
I dream of people fighting me,
Am Gm A A7
Without any reason I can see.
Chorus 1:
Bb Am
In the morning, I awake;
Bb Am
My arms my legs, my body aches.
Bb Am
The sky outside is wet and grey;
Bb C D7sus4 Dm
So begins a-nother weary day.
Bb C Dm
So begins a-nother weary day.
Verse 3:
Gm
After eating I go out,
Am
People passing by me shout.
Gm
I can't stand this agony;
Am Gm A A7
Why don't they talk to me?

In the park I have to rest,

The rain is falling on my face;

I wish I could sink with-out a trace.

Bb Am
In the morning, I awake;
Bb Am
My arms my legs, my body aches.

So begins a-nother weary day.
