A DAY LIKE TODAY 
Cmaj7On a day like today 
The sun is mBm7elting the gEm7round 
      Cmaj&
Honey rays peek their way 
Thru a Bm7break in the clEm7oud 
Now yCmaj7ou can almost taste the sunshine 
Bm7Dancing in the Em7air 
Close your Cmaj7eyes 
Crack a smile 
Cos the suBm7nshine is heEre
Chorus
You could Esay 
That he gEma7ave much more 
Than aE7nyone ever aAsked him to 
We should prEay for the Emaj7rain 
It's a parE7ty he can't be inAvited to 
Well you kAmnow the truth 
It's a gAm7ift to me and yCmaj7ou
On a day like today 
The sand is turning to glass 
And the kids in the park 
Burn their feet on the grass 
Now you can almost surf this heat wave 
Watch the water flame 
Take a shot of your life 
Cos it will never be the same
It's the same all through apart from the last chorus which goes
E, Emaj7, E7, A, Am7  and ends on an E chord instead of the Cmaj7.
