THIS TIME TOMORROW- The Kinks

G d G d D du D du Em d Em d Em du D du  (repeat)

 G     D     Em  D  G     D       Em D
This time tomorrow where will we be
 G      D         Em    D  C        B       Em   D
On a spaceship somewhere sailing across an empty sea?
 G     D     Em   D   G    D      Em  D
This time tomorrow what will we know
 G    D       Em     D   C      B            Em     D  D7
Will we still be here watching an in-flight movie show?
       Am       G     D         
I'll leave the sun behind me
           Am         G             B    Em    C
And I'll watch the clouds as they sadly pass me by
  Am    G      D            Am       G            B       Em     C
Seven miles below me I can see the world and it ain't so big at all
 G     D      Em  D G     D      Em D
This time tomorrow what will we see
 G      D        Em   D  C       B       Em        D   D7
Fields full of houses, endless rows of crowded streets

 C                            G                D
I don't know where I'm going, I don't want to see
 C                          Em         D
I see the world below me looking up at me

G d G d D du D du Em d Em d D du Dsus4 du  (repeat)

 Am        G     D              Am         G              B    Em      C
Leave the sun behind me, and I watch the clouds as they sadly pass me by
         Am    G        D              
And I'm in perpetual motion
          Am     G            B     Em      C
And the world below doesn't matter much to me
        G    D     Em   D  G    D      Em D
Well, this time tomorrow where will we be
 G   D   Em             D  C       B        Em    D
On a spaceship somewhere sailing across an empty sea
      G     D     Em   D  G     D     Em  D
Well,this time tomorrow where will we be
 G     D      Em  D  G    D      Em  D
This time tomorrow what will we see
 G     D     Em   D
This time tomorrow...


NOTE: d= strum down and u= strum up. Also, many of the D chords are 
passing chords and don't really need to be played.

NOTE: d= strum down and u= strum up. Also, many of the G chords are 
passing chords and don't really need to be played.  

NOTE: Through the magic of word processing replace command, I have two 
versions of this song, since singing it in the original key is hard for 
me to do.  Take your pick.
