I must have left my house at [Ab] eight because I [G] always do
My train uncertain left the station just when it [Cm] was due
I must have read the morning paper going into [Bb] town
And having gotten through the editorial no doubt I [Eb] must have frowned
I must have made my best around the [Bb]
corner with letters to be read
And heaps of papers waiting to [Eb] be signed
I [Ab] must have gone to lunch [Eb] at half past twelve also
The [Fm] usual place, the usual bunch
And still on top of this I'm [D] pretty sure it [G] must have rained
The day [Cm] before you came
I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two
And at the time I never even noticed [Cm] I was blue
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 [Bb] to the rule
I must have done my routine, I've done it ever since I [Eb] finished school
And [Ab] train back
[Eb] I must have [Fm] read the evening paper then
Oh yes, I'm sure my life was [D] well within its [G] usual frame
The day before you came

I must have opened my [Ab] front door at eight [G] o'clock or so
And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese [Cm] food to go
[C] [Cm] I'm sure I had my dinner watching something [Bb] on TV
There's not I think a single episode of Dallas that I [Eb] didn't see
I must have gone to bed around the corner
[Bb]
I need a lot of sleep also I like to be in [Eb] bed by ten
[Ab]
[Eb] [Fm] French on something in that style
It's funny but I had no [D] sense of living [G] without aim
