ABBA THE DAY BEFORE YOU CAME ENHANCED TO DOLBY STEREO chords
Start Jamming...
[Cm]
I must have left my house at eight, because I [G] always do
My train at uncertain left the station just when it was [Cm] due
I must have read the morning paper going into [Gm]
[Bb] town
And having gotten through the editorial no doubt I [Eb] must have frowned
I must have made my best around the corner [Bb] of the night
With letters to be read and heaps of papers waiting to be [Eb] signed
Gone [Ab]
to lunch at [Eb] half past twelve, also [Fm] the usual place, the usual bunch
And still on top of this I'm pretty sure [G] it must have rained the day before [Cm] you came
I must have left my cell and regretted half [G] past two
And at the time I never even noticed [Cm] I was through
I must have kept on dragging through the business [Bb] of the day
Without really knowing anything I hid a part of [Eb] me away
I must have left, there's no exception to the [Bb] rule
A matter of routine, I've done it ever since I [Eb] finished school
Ah, [Ab] train back home again, [Eb] I'm done, must have [Fm] read the evening paper then
Oh yes, I'm sure my life was well within its [G] usual frame
The day [Cm] before you came

Must [Cm]
[G] [Cm]
have opened my front door at eight o [G]'clock or so
And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to [Cm] go
I'm sure I had my dinner watching something on [Bb] TV
There's not I think a single episode of Dallas that I [Eb] didn't see
Must have gone to bed around the quarter [Bb] to ten
I need a lot of sleep and so I like to be in [Eb] bed by ten
I [Ab] must [Eb]
have [Fm] shown something in that smile
That's funny, but I had no sense of living [G] without aim
The day before [Cm] you came
And [Ab] turning up [Eb] [Fm]
for yet another night
And rattling on the roof I must [Dm] have heard the sound [G] of rain
The day [Cm] before you came
