Dar Williams - It happens every day

The first part of ^Fevery d^Gay for me is ^Cgood I've got the ^Fbus stop ^Gin my neighbour^Chood And everything's on ^Empurpose, ^Feverywhere they ^Cgo Hiding in my ^Emcar and ^Frunning in the ^Gsnow Running w^Cith the ^Emfriends they'll ^Amknow for ^Gyears I've ^Fseen it ^Call from ^Csus4/Fhere, from ^Chere

Happens every ^Gday, be^Ffore they go to ^Cschool They play until the ^Gbus drives ^Fup beside my ^Clawn And there's always been a ^Gmother who ^Fwaits 'til they are ^Cgone Then she turns a^Amway Happens ever^Cy day^{Em F G C}

Noon comes and ^Fturns this ^Gcampus upside ^Cdown I watch the ^Fstudents ^Gin this college ^Ctown You would think they're ^Emcarefree, ^FI have seen their ^Ctrials Frowning into ^EmShakespeare and ^Fpracticing their ^Gsmiles Even ^Cunder^Emlining ^AmNabo^Gkov When ^FI am ^Cnot in ^Csus4/Flove, in ^Clove

It happens every ^Gday, with their ^Fjournals in ca^Cfes Looking up at their re^Gflection ^Fon the other ^Cwall With every new ^Gidea wondering ^Fif they've changed at ^Call And then they look a^Amway Happens ever^Cy day^{Em F G C F G C F G C}

Well, life is as ^Fhard and as ^Geasy as they ^Csay Walking the ^Fsteps we've ^Gchosen on this ^Cday Some will be out^Emrageous, ^Fsome have rarely ^Cshown Some will walk in ^Emcouples, ^Fsome will walk a^Glone As I ^Cthink a^Embout the ^Amworld I ^Gsee They ^Fstare and ^Csmile at ^Csus4/Fme, at ^Cme

It happens every ^Gday at the ^Fcrossing of the ^Cstreet Walking out to see what's ^Gnew and ^Fwhat is just the ^Csame And the only word for ^Glove is ^Feverybody's ^Cname And that will always ^Amstay Happens ever^Emy day And ^Fevery day will ^Ghappen without^Am you ^{F G C F G C C}
