Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
F  C  G  C  F  C  G  C

Verse:
  F        C     G      C   F  C  G  C
I meant to do my work today
   F    C     G     C    F  C  G  C
So many plans I had made
    F         C         F        C
I'd check the mail, I'd make the call
F        C         F         C
Save the world and sweep the hall
F       C        F        C
Finally get my accounting done
F        C     F      C
Sort the beans one by one
    F     C       G      C      F   C
But I got waylaid by the morning sun
N.C.                         F    C  G  C  F  C  G  C
And I got absolutely nothing done

Verse:
  F           C      G      C    F  C  G  C
I thought I'd live a louder life
    F       C       G      C     F  C  G  C
I'd learn a lot and get it right
    F      C         F         C
I'd rent a loft, I'd drink all night
    F    C      F    C
I'd be a living archetype
    F    C        F        C
And in a blinding flash of light
    F        C   F       C
I'd see that one great insight
    F       C         G    C      F   C
But silence called me deeper still
N.C.                             F  C  G  C  F  C  G  C
Like nothing else I know, ever will

Verse:
  F       C       G       C  F  C  G  C
I woke to hear an owl nearby
        F         C      G        C   F  C  G  C
Hunting something large enough to cry
F        C      F     C
Nature's always beautiful
    F         C        F      C
The change of season's always right
    F           C        F        C
The moon shines cold and true and bright
   F       C        F     C
It sets at dawn without a fight
    F     C         G    C   F  C
And yet I could not find a way
N.C.                             F    C  G  C  F  C  G  C
To get myself back to sleep last night

Instrumental:
F  C  G  C  F  C  G  C

Verse:
  F     C         G       C     F  C  G  C
I never knew just what it meant
    F       C      G         C      F  C  G  C
The way you smiled while you dreamt
    F      C         F   C
And why my heart can overflow
    F      C         F        C
And why mistakes can haunt me so
    F       C    F        C
Why nothing ever stops or stays
     F        C      F       C
Dust shimmers in the morning rays
  F      C      G         C     F    C
I didn't do the work that I had said
N.C.                                   F C    G  C
I just wandered through these thoughts instead

Outro:
F  C  G  C  F  C  G  C
F  C  G  C  F  C  G  C
F  C  G  C  F  C  G  C
