Lucy Kaplansky - Today's The Day
CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: C F G
C
You taught me how to win
Cmaj7
The card games we used to play
F
I could always beat the other kids
G
But all bets are off today
C
'Cause tonight's the night I'll say goodbye
Cmaj7
The last time that I can
F
I'll kiss your sleeping head
G F
And hold your dying hand
CHORUS:
C G C F
Out beyond this silent room
C G6 G F
Out beyond this blood we share
C G Am F
There's a place we'll both know
C G6 G
I will meet you there
C
Today's the day that I let go
Cmaj7
Of what you'll never be
F
It's the imprint of how you lived
G
That shines so bright in me
C
There was music from your hands
Cmaj7
And music filling up your room
F
And there were numbers filling yellow pads
G F
Always close to you
CHORUS:
C G C F
Out beyond this silent room
C G6 G F
Out beyond this blood we share
C G Am F
There's a place we'll both know
C G6 G
I will meet you there
C
And finally I've been
Cmaj7
The daughter I should be
F
You called me your beloved
G
The last time you looked up at me
C
Tomorrow I'll sing the lullaby
Cmaj7
You used to sing to me
F
A children's book you found somewhere
G F
With a made up melody
CHORUS:
C G C F
Out beyond this silent room
C G6 G F
Out beyond this blood we share
C G Am F
There's a place we'll both know__
C G6 G
I will meet you there
C
I will meet you there
