F#m7        A                 Esus4 E
Every day I wake up and it's Sunday,
F#m7    A                         Esus E
And whatever's in my eye won't go away.
F#m7           A             Esus4 E
The radio is playing all the usual,
F#m7          A            Esus4 E
And what's a Wonderwall anyway?

Chorus:
           A         E
Because my inside is outside,
    A                   E
My right side's on the left side.
            D         A
Cause I'm writing to reach you now, but
F#m7           C#7
I might never reach you.
E             B7         Bm7    E7
Only want to teach you about you but that's not you.

It's good to know that you are home for Christmas
It's good to know that you are doing well
It's good to know that you all know I'm hurting
It's good to know I'm feeling not so well

Chorus

Do you know it's true
And that won't do

Maybe then tomorrow will be Monday
And whatever's in my eye should go away
Still the radio keeps playing all the usual
And what's a wonderwall anyway?

Chorus

Do you know it's true
And that won't do
You know it's you
I'm talking to
