Verse 1
[Am7]
Smoky rooms, city noises
Traffic lights and a lot of different voices
A breeze in the trees
Evening sun... oh yes, it's Saturday
Sweet summer music, very fine
Too many shiny lips
Drinking too much wine
Flying dresses red and blue
Seem to walk in circles
Like tigers in high heeled shoes
It's too damn hot
I wish I'd fit my shoes
My hands are sweaty
And my belt is too tight
Ooh!
Reminds me of a chocolate I ate last night
It was hard to fight
Packed train, bad news surrounds me
Testing my nerves, oh
Chorus
[Fmaj7] [Dm7]
It's one of these days
[Cmaj7] [C#dim7]
Thunder is coming
[Dm7] [Cmaj7] [Bm7] [E7]
The rain will soon start to fall, oh
It's one of these days
Light-years of waiting
It seems like forever before you call out
Verse 2
Steamy chat
Six White Russians
And a Pink Pussycat
Stumbling on the dance floor
Tripping on my tongue
Asking for more (more more more more more)
Staring in another pair of eyes
And another Brazilian Sunrise
And another one
Oops, I spilt some on my T-shirt
Do I look desperate?
Chorus
It's one of these days
Love seems to try me
Finding myself laughing too loud
Oh it's one of these days
I smile like a fool
Sensual feelings make me wanna shout, oh
It's one of these days
The birds in the trees seem to sing more
And everything around me seems to shine
Oh, it's one of these days
Bright days are coming
And all the good looking men are mine
Interlude
[Am7] [F9] [E9] (x4)
[Keyboard Solo] (x4)
[Fmaj7] [Dm7] [Cmaj7] [C#dim7]
[Dm7] [Cmaj7] [Bm7] [E7]
Chorus
It's one of these days
Love seems to try me
Finding myself laughing too loud
It's one of these days
The birds in the trees seem to sing more
And everything around me seems to shine
It's one of these days
Oh no, the good looking men are mine, oh
It's one of these days
Love seems to try me
And everything around me seems to shine
[Am7]
