[D]
[Em] [Am]
[G]
[Dm] [G]
[Am] When tomorrow comes, [Em] the first day for me,
[G] [F]
that I will [Am]
rise, [Dm] not [F] so young, [Dm] [C] [G] but free.
[Am]
[G]
[C] Gonna paint the town [Em] the [Am] brightest red, [F]
a drink for every time you [G] said,
[F] [Em]
that we were one, [Am]
always to be.
[F]
I'll leave at home the ring you gave [G] to me,
[F] and I will [Dm] smile [F] as the sun comes [Em] shining through,
[G] [Dm]
[F] if I ever [G]
[D] get [C] over you.
[F]
[Am] [C]
[G] [Dm] [C] I'm gonna laugh no more, the silent [Am]
one, dance [F] upon tables never home till midnight [C] been and [G] gone.
I'm gonna throw away all my [Am] clothes so blue, gonna [F] try everything, everything that's [G] new.
[F] When [Am] tomorrow comes, the first day [Em] for me, [G]
[F]
that I [Am] will rise, not so young, [G] but free.
I [Am] will smile as the sun comes [Em] shining through,
[G] [Am] if I [F] ever, [Am] if [G] I [C] ever [G] get [C] over you.
[F]
Somebody said this new life, [G] that I have come to know,
[Em]
I should have tried it, oh so [Am] many years ago.
[Dm] [F]
The glimpse of freedom, seems [G] such a happy song,
[Em]
it's such a shame that it's only there, only [Am] there for one.
And [F] I will [Am] smile as the sun comes shining [G]
through, if [Dm] I ever, if I [G] ever get over [C] you.
[Dm]
[C]
[Am]
[Dm]
[G]
[C]
[Am] [Dm]
[Am] [Em] [F]
Good [C] time waiting, [F]
is there for [C] the taking, so [F]
many good [C]
things for me to [Dm] do.
[G]
[Cm] [F]
If I [C] ever, [F]
oh if [C] I ever, [F]
if I ever get over [C]
you, [Am]
[Dm]
if [G] I ever [C] get over you.
