INTRO: G Bm G C Am F#m D Am F C D
G Em
An orange balloon on the distant horizon
C Am
The air had a nip, for the sun was still rising
D F
A delicate fusion of ambery tone
C D
Brought warmth to the shore, where I walked all alone
G C D
Another day begins
G Em
A crab scuttled awkwardly, shyly away
C Am
Perhaps the strangest of all nature's rebels
D F
Night shed its cloak with the sounds of the day
C D
The gentle lap of the tide on the pebbles
G C D C G C G C
Another day begins, another day
G Em
The gulls on the breeze, soaring over my head
C Am
Like marionettes with invisible thread
D F
The day unfurled like the lights on a mast
C D
Spelling a message of sunshine at last
G C D C G C G
Another day begins, another day

The clear blue sky was free

Far too soon it was time to be leaving

A gull flew ahead of me, bobbing and weaving

It caught my eye with a quizzical stare

Was it my love, was it she who was there?

Another day begins

I climbed the steep path to the high cliff top's heather

The sea was as clear as a fresh mountain stream

The gull, as it circled away, dropped a feather

A souvenir of a beautiful day dream
