| Em |
| I must have left my house |
| B7 |
| At eight because I always do |
| B7 |
| My train I'm certain left the station |
| Em |
| just when it was due |
| D |
| I must have read the morning paper going into town |
| D |
| And having gotten through the editorial |
| G |
| No doubt I must have frowned |
| G |
| I must have made my desk around |
| D7 |
| a quarter after nine |
| With letters to be read and heaps of papers |
| G |
| waiting to be signed |
| C |
| I must have gone to lunch |
| Em |
| at half past twelve or so |
| Am |
| The usual place the usual bunch |
| Am7 |
| And still on top of this |
| B7 |
| I'm pretty sure it must have rained |
| Em |
| The day before you came |
| I must have lit my seventh cigarette at half past two |
| And at the time I never even noticed I was blue |
| I must have kept on dragging |
| through the business of the day |
| Without really knowing anything I hid a part of me away |
| At five I must have left |
| there's no exception to the rule |
| A matter of routine |
| I've done it ever since I finished school |
| The train back home again |
| Undoubtedly I must have read the evening paper then |
| Oh yes I'm sure my life was well within it's usual frame |
| The day before you came |

| I must have opened my front door at eight o'clock or so |
| And stopped along the way to buy some Chinese food to go |
| I'm sure I had my dinner watching something on TV |
| There's not I think a single episode of |
| Dallas that I didn't see |
| I must have gone to bed around a quarter after ten |
| I need a lot of sleep and so I like to be in bed by then |
| I must have read a while |
| The latest one by Marilyn |
| French or something in that style |
| It's funny but I had no sense of living without aim |
| The day before you came |
| And turning out the light |
| I must have yawned and cuddled up for yet another night |
| And rattling on the roof |
| I must have heard the sound of rain |
| The day before you came |
