[INTRO]
Cm | | | |

[VERSE 1]
Cm                                                   | G# *            | G |
Must have left my house at eight, because I always do
| G | *                                                                       | Cm | |
My train, I'm certain, left the station just when it was due
| Cm | *                                                             | A# |
I must have read the morning paper going into town
| A# |                                                                                         | D# | |
And having gotten through the editorial, no doubt I must have frowned

[CHORUS 1]
D# |                                                                       | A# |
I must have made my desk around a quarter after nine
         | A# |                                                                      | D#
With letters to be read, and heaps of papers waiting to be signed
D# | G#                                | D#
I must have gone to lunch at half past twelve or so
                | Fm |
The usual place, the usual bunch
| Fm                                            | Dm *                  | G |
And still on top of this I'm pretty sure it must have rained
                      | Cm |
The day before you came

[VERSE 2]
| Cm | *                                                             | G |
I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two
| G | *                                                       | Cm |
And at the time I never even noticed I was blue
| Cm | *                                                                           | A# | |
I must have kept on dragging through the business of the day
A# |                                                                             | D# |
Without really knowing anything, I hid a part of me a - way

[CHORUS 2]
| D# |                                                                      | A# |
At five I must have left, there's no exception to the rule
| A# |                                                                      | D# |
A matter of routine, I've done it ever since I finished school
      | G#
The train back home again,
| D#                                             | Fm |
undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper then
| Fm                                            | Dm *               | G |
Oh yes, I'm sure my life was well within its usual frame
                       | Cm
The day before you came

[VERSE 3]
Cm |                                                    G# *                | G |
I must have opened my front door at eight o'clock or so
| G | *                                                                             | Cm |
And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go
| Cm | *                                                             | A# |
I'm sure I had my dinner watching something on TV
           | A# |                                                                      | D# |
There's not, I think, a single episode of Dallas that I didn't see

[CHORUS 3]
| D# |                                                                 | A# |
I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten
| A# |                                                                   | D# |
I need a lot of sleep, and so I like to be in bed by then
| G#
I must have read a while
       | D#                                    | Fm |
The latest one by Marilyn French or something in that style
        | Fm |                                 Dm *                  | G |
It's funny, but I had no sense of liv - ing without aim
                              | Cm |
The day before you came

[FINAL CHORUS]
| G#
And turning out the light
| D#                                                     | Fm |
I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night
| Fm                                                 | Dm *                     | G |
And rattling on the roof I must have heard the sound of rain
                              | Cm
The day before you came
