[Verse 1]
Am
It was a slow day
Am C D
And the sun was beating
Am C D C D C D D
On the soldiers by the side of the road
Am
There was a bright light
Am C D
A shattering of shop windows
Am C D C D C D D
The bomb in the baby carriage was wired to the radio
[Chorus]
G G C D
These are the days of miracle and wonder
G C D C D C D D
This is the long distance call
G G C D
The way the camera follows us in slo-mo
G C D C D C D D
The way we look to us all
G G C D
The way we look to a distant constellation
G C D C D C D D
That's dying in a corner of the sky
G G C D
These are the days of miracle and wonder
G C D C D C D D
And don't cry baby, don't cry, don't cry
[Post-Chorus]
| Am | Am C D | Am C D C D | C D |
| Am | Am C D | Am C D C D | C D |
[Verse 2]
Am
It was a dry wind
Am C D
And it swept across the desert
Am C D C D C D D
And it curled into the circle of birth
Am
And the dead sand
Am C D
Falling on the children
Am C D C D C D D
The mothers and the fathers and the automatic earth
[Chorus]
G G C D
These are the days of miracle and wonder
G C D C D C D D
This is the long distance call
G G C D
The way the camera follows us in slo-mo
G C D C D C D D
The way we look to us all
G G C D
The way we look to a distant constellation
G C D C D C D D
That's dying in a corner of the sky
G G C D
These are the days of miracle and wonder
G C D C D C D D
And don't cry baby, don't cry, don't cry
[Post-Chorus]
| Am | Am C D | Am C D C D | C D |
(synth guitar lick)
| Am | Am C D | Am C D C D | C D |
(synth guitar lick)
[Verse 3]
Am
It's a turn-around jump shot
Am C D
It's everybody jump start
Am C D C D C D D
It's every generation throws a hero up the pop charts
Am Am C D
Medicine is magical and magical is art
Am C D
Think of the Boy in the Bubble
C D C D D
And the baby with the baboon heart
[Chorus]
G G C D
And I believe, these are the days of lasers in the jungle
G C D C D C D D
Lasers in the jungle somewhere
G G C D
Staccato signals of constant information
G C D C D C D D
A loose affiliation of millionaires and billionaires and baby
[Chorus]
G G C D
These are the days of miracle and wonder
G C D C D C D D
This is the long distance call
G G C D
The way the camera follows us in slo-mo
G C D C D C D D
The way we look to us all
[Chorus]
G G C D
The way we look to a distant constellation
G C D C D C D D
That's dying in a corner of the sky
G G C D
These are the days of miracle and wonder
G C D C D C D D
And don't cry baby, don't cry, don't cry
[Outro]
| G | G C D | G C D C D | C D |

Great work, Maguri. Thx v much too for the Dropbox illustrating the rhythm/play of what you put here.
I highly recommend listening to that to anyone wanting to hear how it can be done, with the low strings supporting the (partial) chords.
