Went walking through town just the other day with nothing' much to do
       E                      B                     A                    E   
As the sun came breakin' down through the clouds, I never seen the sky so blue
        E                B          A                          E
I saw a cajun man with a red guitar singing on the side of the street
          E                        B                     A                 E
I threw a handful of change in his beat up case and said play me a country beat 
and it sounded like

    E                       B                     A                  E
Met up with some friends outside of town, we were headed towards the lake
  E                         B                           A            E
I hopped into the back of a jacked up jeep and felt the wind upon my face
   E                       B                 A                E
We got to the spot and the sun was hot, everybody was feelin' fine 
      E                  B                       A                 E
So we jumped on in for a midday swim and then we lost all track of time


Chorus:
                   E              B              A
It was the perfect day, what I'd give if I could find a way to 
E     B            A 
Stay, lost in this moment 
E          B               A 
Now, ain't worried about tomorrow
            A           B            E     (E B A)
When you're busy livin' in a perfect day

       E                     B                 A                  E
As the moon came out and the fire burned, everybody was singing' along
        E                     B               A                  E
To some Ramblin' Man a little Curtis Loew and all them feel good songs
   E                   B               A                 E
We danced all night without a care, no place we'd rather be
      E                        B                   A                 E
Cause these are the days we'll talk about, when we lived so wild and free
(Chorus)


Coda:
A                                                          E 
We were sittin' in the sand as he grabbed my hand and then leaned in for a kiss
A                                                       E    
I couldn't help but think with the stars above it don't get much better than this


Outro:
                   E             B               A
It was the perfect day, what I'd give if I could find a way to 
E      B           A 
Stay, lost in this moment 
E          B             A 
Now, ain't worried about tomorrow
            A           B                    A                B             E
When you're busy livin, feels like dreamin', slowly drifting, through this perfect day. 
E B A
