you've been Gsleeping in a field but you look reDal rCested
you set out Gto outrage but you can't gDet aCrrested
you say youGr image is new but it looks wDell tCested
you're loDst without a crowd yet you gEmo your own way
you say your Gsummer has gone
now the winter is DcrawClin' in
they say that Geven in your day
somehow you never couDld quiCte fit in
though it's Gcold outside
I know the summer's gonDna coCme again
because you knDow what they say
every dog Emhas his day
you're a miGsfit, afraid of yourself so you rDun aCway and hide
you've been a Gmisfit all your life
why don't you join the crowd aDnd coCme inside
you wanGder round this town like you've Dlost Cyour way
you had yGour chance in your day
yet yoDu thrCew it all away
but you knDow what they say
every doEmg has his day
Glook at all the G7losers and the Cmad C/Beyed Amgazers
Glook at all the G7loonies and the Csad C/Beyed Amfailures
they've Cgiven up Dliving 'cos they Emjust Ddon't Ccare
so Ctake a good look around
the misfits are everywhere
(instrumental like verse: G D C, Ray sings "la la la la la")
Gthis is your chance, DthCis is your time
so don't Gthrow it away
yDou can Chave your day
'cause it's Dtrue what they say
every dEmog has his day
(repeat first chorus)
you're a misfit, afraid of yourself so you run away and hide
you've been a misfit all your life
but why don't you join the crowd and come inside
you wander round this town like you've lost your way
you had your chance in your day
yet you threw it all away
now you're lost in the crowd
yet, still go your own way
it ends in Em
this works! God save The Kinks!
