Intro:  E5

           C5              C#5
A man came to drill holes in the afternoon
D5
And by the evening
Eb5                   E5
Most of the afternoon had gone
               C5     C#5
I seem to have slept through the morning
D5
But in the afternoon
Eb5                 E5
A morning is yet to come
            C5                   C#5
A girl came to help out in the kitchen
D5
And by the evening
Eb5                  E5
We found we were all washed up

          C5
We ate on the lawn
         C#5
With the insects
          D5
We burned incense
Eb5                     E5
Most of the band turned up

        Bb5                A5
It was just one of those days
G5            F#5
When the mind strays
F5
One of those days
Bb5            A5
When everyone plays
G5
One of those days
F#5           F5
When everyone stays
Bb5                     G5     E5
And all of the dreaming goes on


        C5            C#5
A woman arrived in a panic
       D5
With a picnic
Eb5                 E5
Better to give than receive

              C5                 C#5
A man came to pick holes in the logic
D5
He wore plastic
Eb5                        E5
And shoes you would hardly believe

            C5
The evening arrived
         C#5          D5
Slightly early like a pygmy
Eb5                       E5
Chewing the wrong kind of leaves

         Bb5              A5
It was just one of those days
G5            F#5
When the mind strays
F5
One of those days
Bb5            A5
When everyone plays
G5
One of those days
F#5           F5
When everyone stays
Bb5             G5            E5
And all of the dreaming goes on

All in Em

We ordered extra tea
Listened to XTC
Under a shady tree
Went back to bed at three
It was cool
As can be
(two sugars for me..)

Ahahahaah-part: follow the same chord progression as in the verses

It was just one of those days part: the same as before, ending on Em

Thanks for looking up this tab. I think it?s pretty solid. If you want to compliment me 
or if you want to give me some advice, please do.
