ToCday was fine,
I woke up late like I Amalways do,
Made work just in the Gnick of time,
And thought of yCou.

Waiting for me like you Galways are,
Since yCou came along.

My days are Fordinary.
We laugh just like yesterday,
And I kiss you like the Gday before,
And I hold you just like Fordinary.
Perhaps when the day is new,
We'll find tomorGrow is just ordinary too.

[Intro]

D Bm A F#m

[Verse 1]

Today was fine,

I woke up late like I always do,

Made work just in the nick of time,

And thought of you.

And when I returned,

I found you just like I always do,

Waiting for me like you always are,

Since you came along.

[Chorus]

My days are ordinary.

We laugh just like yesterday,

And I kiss you like the day before,

And I hold you just like ordinary.

Perhaps when the day is new,

We'll find tomorrow is just ordinary too.

[Verse 2]

Tomorrow came,

My shadow it was growing long,

I came to home to find you singing songs,

Just the same.

And today it seems

You're smiling like you always are,

Every day it's the same old thing,

Since you came along,

[Chorus]

My days are ordinary.

We laugh just like yesterday,

And I kiss you like the day before,

And I hold you just like ordinary.

Perhaps when the day is new,

G G

We'll find tomorrow is just ordinary too.
