[Intro]
 
| Em C |  x8
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
Em               C                   D         G      D/F#   Em
   My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I got out of bed at all
            C                 D           G       D/F#   Em
The morning rain clouds up my window, and I can't see at all
         C                D                     G       D/F#  Em
And even if I could, it'd all be gray, but your picture on my wall
     C                  Em/B             C
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad
 
 
| Em C | x2
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Em              C                   D                G         D/F#     Em
   I drank too much last night, got bills to pay, my head just feels in pain
              C                  D               G        D/F#   Em
I missed the bus and there'll be hell today, I'm late for work again
         C                     D               G         D/F#      Em
And even if I'm there they'll all imply that I might not last the day
             C                Em/B             C
And then you call me and it's not so bad, it's not so bad
 
 
[Chorus]
 
    G    G/B     C
And I... want to thank you
                  G         G/B  C
For giving me the best day of my life
    G   G/B     C
And oh, just to be with you
              Bm             Am
Is having the best day of my life
 
 
[Interlude] (can also play G/B passing chords)
 
| G   | C   | G   | C   |
| G   | C   | Bm  | Am  |
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
G                     G/B     C                                 G
  Push the door, I'm home at last and I'm soaking through and through
                G/B   C                      G
Then you handed me a towel and all I see is you
                 G/B        C                           Bm
And even if my house falls down now, I wouldn't have a clue
               Am
Because you're near me...
 
 
[Chorus]
 
    G    G/B     C
And I... want to thank you
                  G         G/B  C
For giving me the best day of my life
    G   G/B     C
And oh, just to be with you
              Bm             Am
Is having the best day of my life
 
    G    G/B     C
And I... want to thank you
                  G         G/B  C
For giving me the best day of my life
    G   G/B     C
And oh, just to be with you
              Bm             Am
Is having the best day of my life

This tab is mostly correct except that it needs to be capoed at IV to play with the song. also, all the Bm chords should be Bm7

totally agree with the verse and chorus thing. The chrous throws off the vibes of the song

Yeah i have to agree that the verse is way better than the chorus. Good tab, thanks.
