Perfect Day 


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.

How to practise this song

1
Put your capo on fret 1
Clamp the capo on before you start — otherwise the shapes won't sound like the original.
2
Practise the barre chord B
B is a barre chord. Lay your index finger flat across all strings and press firmly; practise it on its own until every string rings clearly before you use it in the song.
Open
3
Practise the change: B ↔ A
Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
