C          Ebdim   Dm7 G7  
With every passing day,
Dm         E7       Am   Am7
I close my eyes and say,
F        G                 Em7  Am7
"Here it comes, that happy end--ing,
( Dm7 or Dm ) D7    G   G7
 Sending me   on my way."
C           Ebdim  Dm7 G7
It's just a game I play,
Dm          E7     Am  Am7  
Dreaming my life away.
F        G              Em7  Am7
Though I know my day is pass-ing,
Dm         G7      C
With every passing day.

F           C7      
When I was naive and wore my 
F                Gm7            C7
Heart upon my sleeve, they told me,
F       Dm D                 Gm       Gm7
"Love's a  game that doesn't last for long."
C7        C                  A7        Dm    
Then love came and showed me they were wrong.
G7                           C7                Caug  
Love, it seems, reserves its rules for all the fools.
F                  C7        
There is one thing I've discovered,
F                  Gm7  C7
Little something I've uncovered.
F  Dm  D                Gm        Gm7
No one knows what lies around the bend,
C7      C               D      G
Just suppose my luck is on the mend.
E7         A7
Hope is high,
D7        G
That is why...
C              Ebdim    Dm7 G7             
Daydreams that fly   so far,
Dm          E7    Am  Am7
Melt all my fears away.
F        G              Em7  Am7
Though I know my day is passing,
Dm   G6  Dm7 G5   G   C
With ev--ery pass-ing day.
