On Any Given Day

Hi there.  There's already a tab for the lead stuff, but it helps to know the chords of 
song too.  Like many Carbon Leaf songs, this one has a fairly simple progression.  Just 
to the CD, play along, and you'll be jamming.  Enjoy!

Carbon Leaf – On Any Given Day

Verse 1:

   D                                          G                 D
I woke up, broke free, drove a long time, it didn't purge you from my mind
 D                                       G                D
Hang up the halo, maybe you're right…  Chalk it up to a starry night
D                                    G              D
To be set free, to live and learn…  Did we pass or fail the term?
 D                                         G                 D
You wrote a note with chalk on my door, a message I'd known long before:
D                                         G    D
On any given day, you'll find me gone
D                                         G    D
On any given day, you'll find me gone

Verse 2:

Give me your reason, give me your rhyme so I can tempo me to your time
So I can scratch your surface and be a deeper part of the mystery
To be undone, to be alone, to live life in monotone
I reach the beach and try to ignore the warning I'd known long before
On any given day, you’ll find me gone
On any given day, you’ll find me gone

Chorus:

F#m   G                D    F#m   G         
      A
I've been down to the sea…  I've been down to the sea
       F#m         G           D     F#m           
              A
And so all of the lovers will say, “Forever star-crossed will we stay”
  D                 A       D        A       E
Still I can't help feeling cast away on any given day
  D                 A       D          A       
        D
Still I can't help feeling you'll run away on any given day

Verse 3:

I window shop for you in my mind: a flannel shirt at the five and dime
A leather coat cut big city style, boots from plastic crocodile
A pine cone dipped in glitter glue, a penny 1942
A necklace with a cheap green stone, barefeet, cold sand, chilled to the bone
On any given day you’ll find me gone
On any given day you’ll find me gone

Chorus

Bridge:

Bm       D            A         G
My eye on you, my eye on you
Bm       D          G
My eye on you always…

Chorus (2nd half only)

I lift my hands up, smell to reveal your perfume on the steering wheel
You're next to me asleep and I smile, I think I'll drive on for awhile
On any given day you’ll find me gone…
