[INTRO]

D C Bm C D
[VERSE 1]
D F#m
Frost leaves a sign on your window,
Bm D
Now you know the summer's been and gone,
Bm D
You wonder when you'll see another one,
Em A
Where did your sweet love go?
D F#m
There goes the phone and the doorbell
Bm D
Old friends are passing on the way
Bm D
People stopping by just to say:
Em G
How are you today?
[CHORUS]
Bm
A day is very long
D Bm
How long can you say?
D F#m Em A
How long anyway?
D
A day is very long
Bm D
How long can you say?
Bm A G
How long anyway?
D
A day is very long

[VERSE 2]
D F#m
Beneath the floor and the doorway
Bm D
We found something buried in the clay
Bm D
When they brought it out I looked away
Em A
Been missing for so long.
D F#m
Old friend so-and-so was asking
Bm D
Have I thought of putting it all down
Bm D
God forbid I shouldn't be around
Em G
One day myself to tell them
[CHORUS]
Bm
A day is very long
D Bm
How long can you say?
D F#m Em A
How long anyway?
D
A day is very long
Bm D
How long can you say?
Bm A G
How long anyway?
D
A day is very long
