Verse 1:

Cadd9
 The first thought through my sleepy head
      Em7
When I fell out of my bed
     Cadd9Is (x32030@1)"I hope the sky is gray,
           Em7
I'm gonna write a sad song today."
     Cadd9So (x32030@1)I make up my mind, slip on my shoes
           Em7
I'm gonna pick up a paper and read the news
           Cadd9'Cause (x32030@1)I'm sure to find plenty 'nuff blues
    Em7
To write my sad song
           Cadd9But (x32030@1)when I open the door and the sun spills through
       Em7
Takes away my breath and I think of you
        Cadd9And (x32030@1)the only blues to hit my eyes
          DAre (xx0232@1)those beautiful blues in the clear blue sky!


Chorus:

G (320003@1)             D (xx0232@1)So much for my sad song
Cadd9
 So much for my sorry attitude
G (320003@1)                          Cadd9 (x32030@1)Let's make this a love song     instead

'Cause I'm so in love with you
G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1)C'mon let's go out and play
Cadd9
Save the sad song for another day
Cadd9
No time for tears, I'm wearin' a smile
                G (320003@1)     D (xx0232@1)    Cadd9So (x32030@1)much for my sad song      Yeah


Verse 2:

     Cadd9So (x32030@1)I pick up the news like I said I would
Em7
Drop my jaw right where I stood
           Cadd9'Cause (x32030@1)the headline reads: "All The News Is Good,
        Em7
Because Love Is On The Way!"
          Cadd9And (x32030@1)love floods the world right before my eyes
     Em7
Everybody is dancin' and slappin' high fives
          Cadd9And (x32030@1)such beautiful music fills the skies
    Em7
And we all sing along
          Cadd9And (x32030@1)now I snap out of my daydream
      Em7
And I can't believe how real it seems
      Cadd9But (x32030@1)I keep on dancin' anyway
            D'Cause (xx0232@1)it's turning out to be a marvelous day!


Chorus:

G (320003@1)             D (xx0232@1)So much for my sad song
Cadd9
 So much for my sorry attitude
G (320003@1)                          Cadd9 (x32030@1)Let's make this a love song     instead

'Cause I'm so in love with you
G (320003@1)          D (xx0232@1)C'mon let's go out and play
Cadd9
Save the sad song for another day
Cadd9
No time for tears, I'm wearin' a smile
                G (320003@1)     D (xx0232@1)    Cadd9So (x32030@1)much for my sad song


Bridge:

D (xx0232@1)Sometimes I measure my day
  Cadd9
By how many things go my way
        DAnd (xx0232@1)when things go wrong I usually get mad
     Cadd9But (x32030@1)this time I'm glad that my song didn't turn out sad
