[C#m] I must have left my house at eight [A] because I [G#] always do
My train I'm certain left the station just [C#m] when it was due
I must have read the morning paper going [B] into Toulon
Having gotten through the editorial no doubt [E] I must have frowned
I must have made my desk
around a quarter [B] after nine
With letters to be read and heaps of papers waiting [E] to be signed
I [A] must have gone to lunch [C#m] at half past twelve or so the [F#] usual place the usual bunch
And still on top of this I'm pretty sure it [G#] must have
the day [C#] before you [C#m] came
I must have lit my seventh [A] cigarette at [G#] half past two
And at the time I never even noticed [C#m] I was blue I
Must have kept on dragging through the business [B] of the day
Without really knowing anything I hit a part [E] of me away
At five I must have left
There's no exception [B] to the rule
A matter of routine I've done it ever since I [E] finished school a
[A] Train back home again
Undoubtedly, I must have [F#] read the evening paper then oh
Yes, I'm sure my life was well within its [G#] usual
The day [C#m] before

Must have my front [A] door ready to [G#] come or so
We stopped along the way to buy some [C#m] Chinese food to go
I'm sure I had my dinner watching something [B] on TV
There's not I think a single episode of Dallas that [E] I didn't see I
Must have gone to bed
around a quarter [B] after ten I
Need a lot of sleep
So I like to be in [E] bed by then [A] I
Must have read a while [C#m] the latest one by Marilyn [F#] French or something in that style
It's funny, but I had no sense of living [G#] without a
Day [C#m] before you
[A] I'm turning out the light.
[C#m] I must have yawned and cuddled [F#] up for yet another night
Rattling on the roof.
I must have heard the [G#] sound
