Not Just Any Other Day Chords by John Elefante

_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
Just another [Eb] early morning as the sun began [Fm] to rise
Like a million [Eb] other mornings [Fm] just the same
The people [Eb] of the town [Ab] began their ordinary lives
Unsuspecting [Eb] of a world [Fm] about to change
This was not just [Db] any other [Eb] day
No, [Ab] _
no, no, [Eb] no, no
[Fm] _ It was not just any other [Eb] day
No
[Ab] _ _
No
[Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ But [Gb] little did they know that [Db] on the other side of [Fm] town
The sin of all humanity [Db] would bleed beneath the crown
[Bbm] Of a man whose only blame [Ab] was being born a king
[Bbm] And I [Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] wish that I could have felt that [Eb] rain on me
[Bbm] I _ [Fm] _ _ _ [Db] _ [Ab] wish that I could have felt that [Eb] rain _
I would have [Fm] looked into your dying eyes [Db] instead
If you would just [Ab] believe the law
It's just what you've [Eb] been telling me two thousand years
_ _ [Db] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ It was business as [Eb] usual, nothing [Db] different at all
[Ab]
As dust [Eb] would cast a shadow, [Fm] the night began to fall
But no one [Ab] stopped to notice that before this day would end
The sick and the afflicted [Fm] needn't ever hurt again
Not just any other [Ab] day
_ _ No, no, no, no, [Eb] no
_ [Fm] _ It was not [Db] just any other [Ab] day
_ _ [Db] No _
_ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ [Bbm] As a small crowd gathered just [Ab] beneath the dying sun
[Eb] The fulfillment of a promise [Fm] had been done
_ [Bbm] _
_ [Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] I wish [Ab] that I could have felt that [Eb] rain on me
[Bbm] I _ [Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] wish that I could have felt that [Eb] rain
I would have [Fm] looked into your [Eb] dying eyes instead
If you would [Ab] just believe the law
It's just what [Eb] you've been telling _ me
I [Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] _ [Ab] wish that I could have felt that [Eb] rain
two [Fm] thousand years [F] ago
_ _ _ _ [Gb] _
Oh
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [Fm] two thousand years ago _ Oh

[Bbm] _ _
[Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] I wish [Ab] that I could have felt [Eb] that rain.
Hey, [Bbm] I would have held with [Fm] my own hands [Eb] when you shouted [Db] out in tears and [Ab] said,
Father, why have you [Eb] forsaken me?
_ [Bbm] _ _
[Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] I wish [Ab] that I could have felt that [Eb] rain on me.
I [Fm] _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ wish [Ab] that I could have felt that [Eb] rain.
Two [Fm] thousand years ago.
