Cheryl Wheeler - All The Live Long Day
## NOTE: G/F# is a Bass walk-down from G to Em on the E-string ##
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: G
C G
The sun is shining, making this room so bright
G/F# Em C
And the cats are sleeping, right up on the table
D
Breaking all the rules in plain sight
G C
There's a cloud coloured moon floating in the blue
Am7 D
Not waiting for the sun to go away
G C
I just wish I could walk with you and talk with you
D G
All the live long day
C G
We never really had a winter, it never came and now it's gone
G/F# Em C
And the days grow longer, like a late night road
D
Like the odds you'll come back home
G C
But I don't mind wasting my time
Am7 D
Waiting for the ache to go away
G C
I don't mind telling you it's what I do
D G
All the live long day
CHORUS:
D G
All the live long day
Am G D
I wonder what I'll do
G
I don't see no way
Am G D
Of getting over you
G C G
The boys were in the back field, sorting out the who and when
G/F# Em C
It's like cat graf-fiti, but they read it with their nose
D
And it's written from the other end
G C
Though James takes it in with a different spin
Am7 D
He likes to read the Sniff and Spray
G C
It's just them and me, and my ennui
D G
All the live long day
CHORUS:
D G
All the live long day
Am G D
I wonder what I'll do
G
I don't see no way
Am G D
Of getting over you
INSTRUMENTAL: G Am G D G Am G D
N.C. G C G
I was watching the sunset, wishing you were watching too
G/F# Em
Through the winter branches
C D
Drop jaw red, Maxfield Parrish blue
G C
And then a windy night with the stars so bright
Am7 D
The trees just bow and sway
G C
I been close to blue and missing you
D G
All the live long day
C
I been close to blue and missing you
D G C D G
All the live long day
