Routine
 
[Verse 1]
 
F#m      D      F#m           D
    What do I do with all the children's clothes 
C          Em          Em             D
 such tiny things that still smell of them
F#m         D         F#m     D
    And the footprints in the hallway
C       Em    Em         D
onto my knees scrub them away
 
F#m – D – F#m – D    |   C – Em – Em – D
 
F#m            D        F#m           D
    And how to be of use make the tea and the soup
C            Em        Em          D
All of their favorites throw them away
F#m               D          F#m      D
    And all their schoolbooks and the running shoes
C           Em           Em            D
Washing and cleaning the dirty still sink
 
 
F#m – D – F#m – D    |   C – Em – Em – D
 
 
[Refrain]
 
F#m     E           D
Routine keeps me in line
F#m      E        D
Helps me pass the time
C#m    B       A
Concentrate my mind 
F    Em     A
Helps me to sleep
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
F#m          D          F#m           D
    And keep making beds and keep the cat fed
C        Em      Em          D
Open the windows let the air in
F#m              D          F#m           D
    And keep the house clean and keep the routine
C              Em         Em           D
Paintings they make still stuck to the fridge
 
 
[Interlude]
 
F#m           D     F#m              D
   La-la   la-da       la-la      la-da                  
C          Em   Em    D

C#m – D – Bm – F#m – C#m – A – G – F – E               || (a chord/beat)
 
(I couldn't figure out exactly the chords in the guitar picking part
here but I reckon the notes are something around F# - G – A – B – C – D – E)
 
The solo goes with the verse's chords but transposed two steps higher:
 
G#m – E – G#m – E | D – F#m – F#m – E      || x6

D             F#m          F#m             E
Cooking their meals on the stainless steel hob
G#m     E      G#m   E
   Keep washing keep scrubbing
 
D – C#m – B – A – G#m – F#m – E – Eb                     || (a chord/beat)
Long until the dark comes to bruise the sky

[Part D]
 
Emadd9 – A6 – Dmaj7 – D

   The most beautiful morning forever
Emadd9                    A6            Dmaj7        D
   Like the ones from far off, far off away
Emadd9                 A6           Dmaj7          D
   With the hum of the bees in the jasmine sway
