Daydream

Words & Music by John Sebastian
Recorded by The Lovin' Spoonfull, 1966 (#2


A      AM7       F#7      D                              E7
What a day for a daydream, what a day for a daydreamin' boy!

A   C#m7-5    F#7      D                              E7
I'm lost in a daydream, dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy

D            Dm6              A     F#7
And even if time ain't really on my side

D                  Dm6               A       F#7
It's one of those days for takin' a walk outside

D               Dm6           A          F#7
I'm blowin the day to take a walk in the sun

   D           DM7                E7/6  E7         Fdim
And fall on my face on somebody's new  mowed lawn


A          AM7     F#7       D                     E7
I've been havin' a sweet dream; been dreamin' since I woke up today

    A     C#m7-5       F#7
It starred  me and my sweet-pea --

D                       E7
She's the one makes me feel this way

D           Dm6              A      F#7
And even if time is passin me by a lot

D               Dm6             A              F#7
I couldn't care less about the blues you say I got

D             Dm6               A           F#7
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for droppin' my load

D                             E7 
A pie in the face for being a sleepy ol' toad.



Instrumental Interlude:  1st two lines of verse


D              Dm6                 A        F#7
And you can be sure that if you're feelin' right

    D            Dm6       A          F#7
A daydream will last along into the night

D            Dm6               A             F#7
Tomorrow at breakfast you may pick up your ears

D                                 E7
Or you may be daydreamin' for a thousand years...


A      AM7       F#7      D                    E7
What a day for a daydream,  custom-made for a daydreamin' boy

A  C#m7-5     F#7      D                  E7
I'm lost in a daydream, dreamin' bout my bundle of joy


(Whistle to fade)
