Pretty Good Day copyright 2006 Stan Lyness and Meg Devlin Irish medium-tempo folk, male or female voice intro C F G7 C C This morning I ran out the door F and rain began to pour. G C I was way too late to run back and get my hat. C I jumped in the car, turned the key - F the needle just stayed stuck on "E". G7 ( Fmaj7 C ) My commute just went downhill after that. F An' my next 8 hours or so C just kept going that way, D7 If you take the long view though, ( G E7 Dm7 ) G7 it was a pretty good day. CHORUS: F It was a pretty good day C all in all; G C 'cause it started in your arms, where I'll be when evening falls. F C Your kisses and your listening and your sympathy outweigh G the downpour and the tank and the traffic mess G and the SUVs in my way. ( G F ) So I must confess, C7 it was a pretty good day. At work, the coffepot cooked down with no filters to be found, an my chair had disappeared into a meeting. My manager forgot my name 'til he needed me to blame and the copier ate the document I was feeding. And each time my phone would ring, new headaches came my way. Still, considering everything, it was a pretty good day. CHORUS: It was a pretty good day all in all, 'cause I woke up by your side where I'll return when shadows fall. Your sweet kisses and your listening and your wistful eyes outweigh the angry callers and the boss' fits and the chair that went astray, So I must admit it was a pretty good day. BRIDGE: E F If all my plans are working, and things go as they should, D G G7 tomorrow might be perfect, otherwise, just pretty good. CHORUS: It'll be a good day tomorrow too. No matter what the middle brings, it begins and ends with you. Your sweet kisses and your listening and your blissful sighs outweigh dieting, anxiety, and plans gone wrong, a checkbook nearly overdrawn, a car that's hardly hangin' on, and a busted microwave. So I'm counting on another pretty good day.
