VERSE:

Dm            Gm
When Mac was swimming
C              F
I was running late
Bb7M       Gm
Walking around New Orleans
C              F
Looking for a birthday cake
Dm              Gm
It was a great surprise to him
C               F7M  
So many people came

CHORUS:

Bb7M           F7M  
Nobody knows, darling
Bb7M         F7M          Bb7M  
Nobody knows how they are loved
                F7M  
Don't worry, my darling
    Bb7M  
The sun's coming up

Dm            Gm
Let's get up early now
C             F
Dive clear into the day
Bb7M                 Gm             C
Let's get out of the car with open arms
            F
Not wait to be embraced
Dm               Gm
The flowers that grew, the things that
C                 F7M  
happened since the day you came.
