D     D6  Em7     Edim      A7  D    F#m   B7
Daybreak,     an - oth - er new day;

    Cdim       E7/9       A7/6
The mist on the mea - dow

Em7  A7        Edim  G6  G/F#  Em7   Gm7
Is  drif - ting a - way.


Fdim Edim  D   D6   Em7     Fdim(III) Bm7-5    F#7     B7
For   it's daybreak,    the   sun's     in the sky now,

    Em7/9  Em7 Em7/9   A9     Em7   A9
And flow - ers break through

      Em7/9 Em7 Em7/9  A9     
Their blan - ket of   dew.


D     D6  Em7     Edim      A7   D    F#m   B7
Sun - rise,   how love - ly it seems

  Cdim          A    AM7  A7
To see from my win - dow

  A7/6  A7     G6  G/F#  Em7   Gm7   A7/6  
A sky full of dreams.


Fdim Edim  A      A6    A7
 As   the white clouds 

    Edim             G6  G/F#  Em7   Gm7   Edim
Sail on through the blue,

    D   D6  G   Edim     A7  D
At daybreak   I daydream of you.
