Verse 1:
C5
The first thought through my sleepy head
E5
When I fell out of my bed
C5
Is "I hope the sky is gray,
E5
I'm gonna write a sad song today."
C5
So I make up my mind, slip on my shoes
E5
I'm gonna pick up a paper and read the news
C5
'Cause I'm sure to find plenty 'nuff blues
E5
To write my sad song
C5
But when I open the door and the sun spills through
E5
Takes away my breath and I think of you
C5
And the only blues to hit my eyes
D5
Are those beautiful blues in the clear blue sky!
Chorus:
G5 D5
So much for my sad song
C5
So much for my sorry attitude
G5 C5
Let's make this a love song instead
'Cause I'm so in love with you
G5 D5
C'mon let's go out and play
C5
Save the sad song for another day
C5
No time for tears, I'm wearin' a smile
G5 D5 C5
So much for my sad song Yeah
Verse 2:
C5
So I pick up the news like I said I would
E5
Drop my jaw right where I stood
C5
'Cause the headline reads: "All The News Is Good,
E5
Because Love Is On The Way!"
C5
And love floods the world right before my eyes
E5
Everybody is dancin' and slappin' high fives
C5
And such beautiful music fills the skies
E5
And we all sing along
C5
And now I snap out of my daydream
E5
And I can't believe how real it seems
C5
But I keep on dancin' anyway
D5
'Cause it's turning out to be a marvelous day!
Chorus:
G5 D5
So much for my sad song
C5
So much for my sorry attitude
G5 C5
Let's make this a love song instead
'Cause I'm so in love with you
G5 D5
C'mon let's go out and play
C5
Save the sad song for another day
C5
No time for tears, I'm wearin' a smile
G5 D5 C5
So much for my sad song
Bridge:
D5
Sometimes I measure my day
C5
By how many things go my way
D5
And when things go wrong I usually get mad
C5
But this time I?m glad that my song didn?t turn out sad
G/ C5
Chorus:
G5 D5
