WE ALL LOSE SOMEONE WE LOVE
SOMETIMES WE DON’T DO ENOUGH
IT’S BEEN MY FAULT, BUT NOY THIS TIME
YOU LOST YOUR HEART WHEN YOU CHANGED YOUR MIND

NOTHING YOU TOLD ME SEEMS REAL
TIME TO MEND MY BROKEN HEART
AND TODAY, IS A GREAT DAY… TO START
A GREAT DAY TO START

(Verse Two)
DAY BY DAY IT’S EASIER TO SMILE
STEP BY STEP I HAVE WALKED MILES

NOTHING YOU TOLD ME SEEMS REAL
TIME TO MEND MY BROKEN HEART
AND TODAY, IS A GREAT DAY… TO START
A GREAT DAY TO START

DAY BY DAY NIGHT BY NIGHT
DAY BY DAY NIGHT BY NIGHT
YOU LIED TO ME BABY
BABY GOODBYE
SAY GOODBYE TO ME BABY
BABY YOU LIED
DON’T YOU CRY FOR ME BABY!

DON’T YOU CRY FOR ME BABY!

This works pretty good on the guitar but I would love to hear it on a piano if that interest anyone.
