Gmaj7 Cmaj7    Gmaj7 Cmaj7 
       Uh, mm 


 
Gmaj7                     Cmaj7                          Gmaj7               Cmaj7 
Somewhere on a Saturday morning, there's a girl in a window (Girl in a window) 
         Gmaj7                       Cmaj7                   Gmaj7                    Cmaj7 
Watching people passing by as she clutches on her aching heart (On her a-aching heart, heart) 
                                 Cmaj7 
She's a sweet coffee sipper since life has been so bitter 
      D                                Cmaj7                Gmaj7     Cmaj7 
She's learning how to live without the man who gave up on her now 
             Gmaj7 
Love let her down 
           Cmaj7 
I need the band, I need the band, hm 
Gmaj7                         Cmaj7                        Gmaj7                 Cmaj7 
Somewhere in the traffic on Bond Street, a middle-aged man was driving his van 
          Gmaj7                          Cmaj7 
He's been awful low of late, but he'll never show his mates 
       Gmaj7       Cmaj7 
He's a man's man 
D                     Cmaj7 
Working like a dog, a pile of bills to pay 
    D                       Cmaj7                             Gmaj7   Cmaj7 
The last lonely pint at the bar will be the highlight of his  day 
                  Gmaj7                  Cmaj7 
And every day the same (Still, still, still, still) 
 

 
                 Bm7 
Still, he must believe, happier times ahead 
            Am7 
Life is not fair, life can be hard 
                  Bm7 
But we only get one (We only get one) 
             Bm7 
Whatever may come (Whatever may come) 
              Am7                     D7 
Find a little faith to hold on, my friend 
                           Gmaj7     Cmaj7 
There will be happier times   again 
       Gmaj7         Cmaj7 
Oh-oh, yeah, yeah-yeah 
 

 
Gmaj7                           Cmaj7 
Somewhere in the middle of England 
                   Gmaj7        Cmaj7 
Auntie Jean is up crying again 
      Gmaj7 
After sixty years of marriage 
    Cmaj7                             Gmaj7               Cmaj7 
Her Roger has left her alone in the land of the living 
            D 
Ooh, she's cried a hundred seas 
Cmaj7 
No one understands 
    D                            Cmaj7                     Gmaj7    Cmaj7 
The only one who'd get it, isn't here anymore to hold her  hand 
       Gmaj7                 Cmaj7 
Oh-oh, hand (Oh, hand, oh, hand, oh, hand) 
 

 
                  Bm             Bm7 
Still, she must believe, happier times ahead 
            Am7 
Life is not fair, life can be hard 
                Bm 
But we only get one (We only get one) 
             Bm7 
Whatever may come (Whatever may come) 
              Am7                        D7 
Find a little faith to hold on, my friend 
                           Gmaj7                   Cmaj7 
There will be happier times  again (Happier, happier, yeah, yeah) 
       Gmaj7     Cmaj7 
Oh-oh, yeah, huh 
 

 
Gmaj7      Cmaj7     Gmaj7       Cmaj7 
It can't rain forever, oh, 'ever 
             Gmaj7 
I don't know how, I 
    Cmaj7        Gmaj7 Cmaj7 
I don't know when 
  Gmaj7        Cmaj7    Gmaj7 
I don't know how or when 
  Cmaj7 
I don't, I don't 
              Gmaj7 
There must be happier 
              Cmaj7 
There must be happier 
              Gmaj7            Cmaj7 
There must be happier times again 
 

 
             Bm7 
Repeat after me, happier times ahead 
           Am7 
May you be loved, and may you feel joy 
             Bm7                                            Am7 
May you know peace that surpasses all understanding, I wish you this 
          D7                                         Gmaj7 
And as I said, happier times (There will be happier times again)

Just hold on to happier times, alright, darling?
