Intro: Em

   Em G
They're the perfect loving family, so adoring
   Em G
And I love them every day of every week
   Am C
So my son's a little shit, my husband's boring
   Am Em
And my daughter, though a genius, is a freak
   C                                         
Still I help them love each other
   F
Father mother sister brother
   Dsus  D
Cheek to cheek

  Em G
So it's times like these I wonder how I take it,
  Em  G
And if other families live the way we do.
   Am  C
If they love each other or if they just fake it,
   Am  Em
And if other daughters feel like I feel too.
   C                                        
Cause some days I think I'm dying,
   F  D
But I'm really only trying to get through

   Am, C, G
For just another day, 
   Am   C    G
for another stolen hour
   Am  C   Dsus   G C G
When the world will feel my power and obey
   Am, C, G
It's just another day
    Am  C   G
Feeling like I'll live forever
     Em   F
Feeling like this feeling never goes away
     Em
For just another day.

 Em   G
When it's up to you to hold your house together
    Em    G
A house you built with patience and with care
   Am    C
But you're grappling with that gray and rainy weather
     Am   C
And you're living on a latte and a prayer
 C
Can you keep the cup from tipping
     F    Dsus, D
Can you keep your grip from slipping in despair,

   Am, C, G
For just another day, 
  Am   C     G
In the hustle and the hurry
  Am    C  Dsus   G C G
And you want to wipe your worry clean away
 Am, C, G
It's just another day
   Am  C     G
I will keep the plates all spinning
  Em     Asus, A
With a smile so white and winning all the way
   C
Cause what doesn't kill me doesn't kill me
   D
So fill me up for just another day.

   D
It only hurts when I breathe.
It only hurts when I try.
 Am
It only hurts when I think.
  D
It only hurts when I cry.
   G
It only hurts when I work.
   D
It only hurts when I play.
   G
It only hurts when I move.
   Dsus, D
It only hurts when I say,

  Am, C, G
It's just another day
  Am  C   G
When the morning sun is stunning
    Am C    Dsus   G C G
And you wish that you were running far away
   Am, C, G
It's just another day
     Am C   G
Birds are singing, things are growing
    Em
And you wish you could be going,
   A
But you'll stay
  C
You'll stay


For my family's sake
I'll reap what I can take
I'm only just awake
   G D    C    G  D
Every day is just another and another and another

  Am C  G
I will hold it all together
  Am   C  G
We're the perfect loving family
   Am   C   G
If they say we're not then fuck 'em
 Am    C  G
The perfect loving family
  Em
I will keep the plates all spinning
And the world just keeps on spinning

A
I think the house is spinning.
