Subject: CRD: Perfect Day - Lou Reed

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

Just a perfect day,

Drink Sangria in the park,

And then later, when it gets dark,

We go home.

Just a perfect day,

Feed animals in the zoo

Then later, a movie, too,

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.
Itґs such fun.
Just a perfect day,
You made me forget myself.
I thought I was someone else,
Someone good.

Oh itґs such a perfect day,
Iґm glad I spent it with you.
Oh such a perfect day,
You just keep me hanging on,
You just keep me hanging on.
