Capo III
(F)(G)(C) . . . (F)(G)(C)
The first part of (F)every (G)day for me is (C)good
I've got the (F)bus stop (G)in my neighbor(C)hood
And everything's on (Em)purpose (F)everywhere they (C)go
Hiding in my (Em)car and (F)running in the (G)snow
Running (C)with the (C/B)friends they'll (Am)know for (Am/G)years
I've (F)seen it (G)all from (C)here, from here
It happens every (G)day, be(F)fore they go to (C)school
They play until the (G)bus drives (F)up beside my (C)lawn
And there's always been a (G)mother who (F)waits 'til they are (C)gone
Then she (C/B)turns a(Am)way
It happens every (Em)day (F)(G)(C)
Noon comes and (F)turns this (G)campus upside (C)down
I watch the (F)students (G)in this college (C)town
You would think they're (Em)carefree, (F)I have seen their (C)trials
Frowning into (Em)Shakespeare and (F)practicing their (G)smiles
Even (C)under(C/B)lining (Am)Nabo(Am/G)kov
When (F)I am (G)not in (C)love, in love
It happens every (G)day with their (F)journals in ca(C)fes
Looking up at their re(G)flection (F)on the other (C)wall
With every new i(G)dea wondering (F)if they've changed at (C)all
And then they (C/B)look a(Am)way
It happens every (Em)day (F)(G)(C)
Well life is as (F)hard and as (G)easy as they (C)say
Walking the (F)steps we've (G)chosen on this (C)day
Some will be out(Em)rageous, (F)some have rarely (C)shown
Some will walk in (Em)couples, (F)some will walk (G)alone
As I (C)think a(C/B)bout the (Am)world I (Am/G)see
They (F)stare and (G)smile at (C)me, at me
It happens every (G)day at the (F)crossing of the (C)street
Walking out to see what's (G)new and (F)what is just the (C)same
And the only word for (G)love is (F)everybody's (C)name
And that will (C/B)always (Am)stay
It happens every (Em)day
And (F)every day will (G)happen without (Am)you
