Intro:   E    F#m7   A    2x

C#m             G#m    F#m
Running down my batteries
C#m        G#m      F#m
Laying me out to rest
C#m              G#m       F#m
Knowing when that in five hours
C#m        G#m      F#m
I wake up into stress

E                        A
And I'm digging myself into a hole
E
And these days I just work
   A
On when one song had so much soul

CHORUS:
     E      F#m      A7+
And lately I've forgotten who I am
 E      F#m      A7+
Need to let my energy just drain away
     E      F#m      A7+
And now my mind is working overtime
         D#m7/5-  G#7   C#m    G#m   F#m
It's been a lo.... ng day
                         C#m G#m  F#m
Such a long day, ay, ay

mmm

    C#m             G#m    F#m
And while all my contemporary (all my friends say)
C#m             G#m    F#m
Are sitting in college now (sitting in a desk)
C#m       G#m    F#m
My education is dragging, dragging (yeah yeah)
C#m           G#m    F#m
My guitar through London town

E                                          A
And the thing that wakes me when I could sleep instead
 E
Is the thought that tonight
   A
I could fall back into bed


Chorus:
  E          F#m     A7+
And lately, I've forgotten who I am
  E     F#m     A7+
Need to let my energy just drain away
     E    F#m     A7+
And now my mind is working overtime
            D#m7/5-  G#7    C#m    G#m   F#m
It's been a lo.......ng day              It's been a long day



D#m7/5-   G#7        C#m
       Recently my head
D#m7/5-   G#7        C#m
       It ain't recharged as such
D#m7/5-   G#7        C#m
       And sleep can only cure, yeah
    D#m7/5-          G#
A restless mind so much


CHORUS
