Subject: CRD: Perfect Day - Lou Reed

I couldn't believe that this wistful strummy song wasn't at Nevada. So it's
here now. The original is played on the piano, hence the stupid key and the
capo. But it's only a semi-tone so why not play it without?

Perfect Day
Lou Reed

(Capo I)

Intro
E  Am  E  Am

Am     D
Just a perfect day,
G            C
Drink Sangria in the park,
F               Dm
And then later, when it gets dark, 
      E
We go home.
Am     D
Just a perfect day,
G           C
Feed animals in the zoo
F          Dm
Then later, a movie, too,
         E
And then home.

   A           D
Oh it's such a perfect day, 
    C#m                  D    D/C#  D/B
I'm glad I spent it with you.
A         E
Oh such a perfect day,
         F#m     E       D
You just keep me hanging on,
         F#m     E       D
You just keep me hanging on.


Just a perfect day,
Problems all left alone,
Weekenders on our own.
It's such fun.
Just a perfect day,
You made me forget myself.
I thought I was someone else,
Someone good.

Oh it's such a perfect day, 
I'm glad I spent it with you.
Oh such a perfect day,
You just keep me hanging on,
You just keep me hanging on.
