On [D] this day we were [A] miles away
We saw a [G] clock up [D] in the [A] sky 
The [D] hands lay on the [A] show to pay
Number [G] fallen [D] on its [A] side 
[G] This day [A]
[G] This day [A]
Just  Done note that was  Aall she wrote
And the  Gsound blew  Ddown the  Awalls 
The  Done boat that was  Aset to float
Took a  Gtrip right  Ddown the  Afalls 
In  Dtwo ways we could  Acut the haze
And we  Gnever  Dused a  Aknife 
In  Dthose days there was  Azero waste
Now a  Gwaste of  Dtime is  Alife 
[G] This day [A]
[G] This day [A]
[D] This day, [A] [G] this day [A] 
[D] This day, [A] [G] this day [A]
[D]
