The Day Before You Came Chords by Abba

[Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I must have left my house at eight [Ab] because [G] I always do _ _
_ _ _ My train, I'm certain, left the station just when it was [Cm] due
_ I _ _ _ must have read the morning paper going [Gm] into [Bb] town _ _ _ _ _ _
Having gotten through the editorial, no doubt [Eb] I must have frowned
Must _ _ _ _ have made my desk a round of order _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
with letters to be read
And heaps of papers waiting to [Eb] be signed
Gone _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ to lunch at [Eb] West Grove also, the [Gm] usual [Fm] place, the usual bunch _ _ _
And still on top of this I'm pretty sure it [G] must have rained _ _ _ the day [Cm] before you came
_ _ _ _ I must have lit my seventh cigarette at [G] half past two _
And _ _ _ at the time I never even noticed [Cm] I was blue _
I _ _ must have kept on dragging through the business of [Bb] the day
_ Without _ _ _ really knowing anything I hid a part [Eb] of me away _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I must have left, there's no exception to [Bb] the rule _ _ _ _
A matter of routine, I've done it ever since I [Eb] finished school
And _ _ [Ab] train bags _ _ [Eb] _ _
have read [Fm] 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 have opened my front [Ab] door at eight o'clock [G] or so
_ _ _ And _ stopped along the way to buy some [Cm] Chinese food to 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 a quarter after [Bb] ten _ _ _
_ _ I need a lot of sleep and so I like to be in [Eb] bed by ten _ _
_ I'm [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ [Fm] French on something and that's fine _
_ It's funny, but I had no sense of living [G] without Dane
_ _ _ The day [Cm] before you came _ _ _ _
[Ab] And turning out the lights [Eb] _ _ _
[Fm] up for yet another night
_ And _ rattling on the roof [Dm] I must have heard the sound [G] of rain
_ The _ day [Cm] before you came _ _ _ _ _
