Intro: Am Bm5-/7  E7/9- Am9 Am  Bm5-/7  E7/9- 

   Am             Bm5-/7  E7/9- Am9 Am Bm5-/7 E7/9- 
A day in the life           of a fool 
  Am              Dm7         G7      C7M Em5-/7 A7/9- 
A sad       and a long      lonely day 
            Dm7           G7 
I walk the avenue 
             C7M         F7M 
And hope I'll run into 
            Bm5-/7          E7/9- 
The welcome sight of you 
         Am9  Am   Bm5-/7  E7 
Coming my way 
   Am            Bm5-/7  E7/9-     Am9 Am   Bm5-/7 E7 
I stop      just across from your door 
    Em5-/7           A7/9- C7/9-      Dm9 Dm7 
But you're     never home      anymore 
                         Bm5-/7      E7/9- 
So back in my room 
                 Am   Am/G  F#m5-/7  F7 
And there in th 
 gloom 
   Bm7/E  E7                    Am 
I cry              tears of goodbye
