G
People always tell ya
D
Boy be thankful for what you got
Am7                              C
People always say the darnedest things, yeah
G
So, you quit takin' chances
          D
Call that responsibility
Am7                             C
Trade your dreams for a little security

[Chorus]
                  G
It's just another day
             D
Just another compromise
             Am7                                 C
Just another night of wonderin' how it might've been
                   G
It's just another dream
             D
Just another life thrown away
             Am7
Ain't that a shame
                  C
It's just another day
             G
Just another day

[Verse 2]
G
Old man, he was tellin' me
D
How he wish he'd done this and that
   Am7                                C
Oh somehow the time had just slipped away, yeah
G
He said it's too late, too late
       D
And he turned and started to leave
   Am7
He stopped, hung his head
                      C
I thought I heard him say

[Chorus]
                  G
It's just another day
              D
Just another compromise
             Am7                                 C
Just another night of wonderin' how it might've been
                  G
It's just another dream
             D
Just another life thrown away
             Am7
Ain't that a shame
                  C
It's just another day
              G   D   C   Am7
Just another day

[Outro]
G
Oh, don't let it be
D
Just another day
Am7
I don't think I could take
        D
Another day

G  D  Am7  C
