INTRO: G Em G Em

G                             Em
The sky is blue but there are clouds in my head,
G                  Em
With big decisions looming ahead.
C                      Am
The sun is out but the room is so grey,
C                 Am
So much confusion headed my way.
G             Em              G    Em
Get positive, try to be gay.


G                          Em
News of the world, tea and biscuits in bed.
G                       Em
The headlines said that Diana is dead.
C                         Am
She couldn't act much but she put on a show.
C                      Am
She always smiled even when she felt low.
G                     Em            G    Em
I used to fancy her a long time ago.


     C       Am                  C
So today has got to be a good day,
         Am                 C
Today is gonna be a good day,
         Am                 C
Today is gonna be a good day,
F         Dm        C       Am C Am
Good day, good day, good day.

G                       Em
Holes in my socks and I can't find my shoes.
G                         Em
It's no surprise that I'm singing the blues.
C                   Am
So many holes in my life still to mend,
G                              Em                G Em G Em
And someone just said that the world's gonna end.


      C  Am                  C
So today better be a good day,
         Am                 C
Today is gonna be a good day,
          Am                  C
Today has got to be a good day,
     F         Dm        G7        Am
Good day, good day, good day, good day.

 
G#                  C#                       G#
If we blow away the past with a bloody great blast,
                      C#
Make it fast, make it fast.
          G#                        C#
So have a good day today because it could be your last,
        D#
Make it last, make it last.


C                    Am
Will it light up the sky?
C                    Am
Will it blot out the sun?
C                      Am
Well we've waited this long,
C                      Am
So it better be a good one.
     F         Dm        C      
Good day, good day, good day.


C                          Am
Yeah, it's gonna be a good day.
G                               Em                  
Hey baby, if you come back home it'll be a good day today.
G                                        Em
They could drop a small atom bomb on the city today,
G                                 Em     G                        Em
But if you walk through that door honey, you know it'll be a good day.

G                      Em
And now survival is my only aim.
G                         Em
I call friends and see if any remain.
C                     Am
Who was that girl who used to be my flame?
G                       Am
I'd call her if I could remember her name.


      C     Am                 C
So today is gonna be a good day,
      C   Am                   C 
Today has got to be a good day,
         Am                  C
Today is gonna be a good day,
     F         Dm        G7        C
Good day, good day, good day, good day.

G               Em                     G               Em
Hey Diana, I've really got to learn to take a tip from you,
G                    Em              G          Em
Put on my makeup and try to make the world take notice of you.
G                   Em            G   Em
Yeah, it's gonna be good day today.


G         Em                  G   Em
Good day, gonna be a good day.

(repeat)
