A Day in the Life of a Fool
5   7 -7 -6  -6    6   -7  5
A sad and a long, lone-ly day,
5 -5    6  -6 -4 -4
I walk the av-e-nue 
-4    5   -5   6   4 4
and hope I’ll run in-to
4   -4   5    -5   -3 -3
The wel-come sight of you
-3   4  -4  5
Com-ing my way

5  7   -7  -6  -6    6*   -7   5
I stop just a-cross from your door
5    -6*   -6  6   6   -5 5 -6
But you’re nev-er home an-y-more
-4 -4    5 -5   -7
So back to my room 
4     4  -4  5     -6
And there in the gloom       
6  5    5   6*  -7   -6
I cry tears of good bye.
-6    -7  7    -8   7 -7
‘Til you come back to me
-6  -7    7   -8   7   -7   
That’s the way it will be
-6 6  -6  -8  7   -7
Every day in the life
-6 6  -6
of a fool

I play this on a slide harp.
It can be played on a diatonic,
but lacks a bit of subtlety.
It also works on a chromatic, one 
number higher.
