Daydream
By John Sebastian

A feel good song for the ukulele.

C                A7
What a day for a daydream
Dm7              G7
What a day for a daydreamin' boy
C                 A7
And I’m lost in a daydream
Dm7               G7
Dreamin' ‘bout my bundle of joy

F           G7                C     A7
And even if time ain’t really on my side
F                 G7                C       A7
It’s one of those days for takin' a walk outside
F                G7           C           A7
I’m blowin’ the day to take a walk in the sun
    Dm7                           G7
And fall on my face on somebody's new mowed lawn

I've been havin’ a sweet dream
I been dreamin’ since I woke up today
It’s starrin’ me and my sweet dream
'Cause she's the one that makes me feel this way

And even if time has passing me by a lot
I couldn't care less about the dues you say I got
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for droppin’ my load
A pie in your face for bein' a sleepy bulltoad

And you can be sure that if you're feelin’ right
A daydream will last along into the night
Tomorrow at breakfast you may pick up your ears
Or you may be daydreamin' for a thousand years

What a day for a daydream
Custom made for a daydreamin' boy
And now I’m lost in a daydream
Dreamin ‘bout my bundle of joy
