[Verse 1]
I wDoke up, broke free, drove a long time, it dGidn't purge you frDom my mind
HDang up the halo, maybe you're right…  ChGalk it up to a stDarry night
DTo be set free, to live and learn…  DGid we pass or fDail the term?
YDou wrote a note with chalk on my door, a mGessage I'd known lDong before:
DOn any given day, you'll find me goneG  D  
DOn any given day, you'll find me goneG  D  
[Verse 2]
DGive me your reason, give me your rhyme so GI can tempo Dme to your time
DSo I can scratch your surface and be a Gdeeper part of the Dmystery
DTo be undone, to be alone, Gto live life in Dmonotone
DI reach the beach and try to ignore the Gwarning I'd known Dlong before
DOn any given day, you’ll find me goneG  D  
DOn any given day, you’ll find me goneG  D  
[Chorus]
   F#mI've been down Gto the Dsea…    F#mI've been down Gto the Asea
And so all of F#mthe lovers Gwill sDay, “Forever F#mstar-crossed will Gwe stAay”

  DStill I can't help feAeling    Dyou'll run aAway on aDny given day
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
DI window shop for you in my mind: a Gflannel shirt at the Dfive and dime
DA leather coat cut big city style, Gboots from plastic Dcrocodile
DA pine cone dipped in glitter glue, a Gpenny 19D42
DA necklace with a cheap green stone, Gbarefeet, cold sand, Dchilled to the bone
DOn any given day you’ll find me goneG  D  
DOn any given day you’ll find me goneG  D
