Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E) Key: E Difficulty: Intermediate Intro: E (4 bars) Verse 1: E A Went walkin' through town just the other day with nothin' much to do E A As the sun came breakin' down through the clouds I have never seen the sky so blue E A I saw a Cajun man with a red guitar singin' on the side of the street E I threw a handful of change in his beat up case and said play me a country beat
And it sounded like E (4 bars) Verse 2: E A Met up with some friends outside of town, we were headed towards the lake E A I hopped into the back of a jacked up jeep and felt the wind upon my face E A We got to the spot and the sun was hot, everybody was feelin' fine E So we jumped on in for a midday swim and then we lost all track of time Chorus: C#m It was the perfect day A E What I'd give if I could find a way to stay B C#m Lost in this moment now A Ain't worried 'bout tomorrow D A/C# E When you're busy livin' in a perfect day E (4 bars) Verse 2: E As the moon came out and the fire burned everybody was singin' along E To some Ramblin' Man, a little Curtis Loew, and all them feel good songs E We danced all night without a care, no place we'd rather be E 'Cause these are the days we'll talk about, when we lived so wild and free Chorus: C#m It was the perfect day A E What I'd give if I could find a way to stay B C#m Lost in this moment now A Ain't worried 'bout tomorrow D A/C# E When you're busy livin' in a perfect day E (4 bars) Bridge: (drums, acoustic guitars and mandolins only, let other instruments ring out first) E We were sittin' in the sand as he grabbed my hand and he leaned in for a kiss E (STOP) I couldn't help but think with the stars above it don't get much better than this Chorus: C#m It was the perfect day A E What I'd give if I could find a way to stay B C#m Lost in this moment now A Ain't worried 'bout tomorrow D A/C# When you're busy livin', feels like dreamin' F#m B E Slowly driftin', through this perfect day E Outro: Na na-na na-na-na-na na na Na na-na na-na-na na na Na na-na na-na-na-na na na E (end on last 'na') Na na-na na na
