[Verse 1 - Chug with no drums]
[Bm] When I was young, it seemed that [Gmaj7] life was so [F#m7] wonderful,
[(G)] A [A] miracle, oh, it was [G] beautiful, [E7/G#] magical,
And all the [Bm] birds in the trees, well, they'd be 
[Gmaj7] singing so [F#m7] happily,
[(G)] Oh, [A] joyfully, oh, [G] playfully [E7/G#] watching me
 
[Verse 2 - Full drums but slap snare]
But then they [Bm] sent me away, to teach me [Gmaj7] how to be [F#m7] sensible,
[(G)] [A] Logical, oh, re - [G] sponsible, [E7/G#] practical,
And then they [Bm] showed me a world where I [Gmaj7] 
could be so de - [F#m7] pendable,
[(G)] Oh, [A] clinical, oh, intel - [G] lectual, [E7/G#] cynical
 
[Chorus - Just bass drum Bxxb Bxxx]
There are [D] times when all the world's a - [G#m7b5/D - XX0102] sleep 
The questions run too [Gmaj7/D - XX0432] deep for such a simple (drums in) [C] man- 
[Em/B] ------ [Am7] ----- [G] ---, 
Won't you (just bass drum) [D] please, ...please, 
tell me what we've [G#m7b5/D] learnt, 
I know it sounds ab - [Gmaj7/D] surd, 
Please, tell me who I [C] am- [Em/B] ------ [Am7] ----- [G] --! 
-----C-----Em/B-----Am7---G
|-/--/--/--/--|--/--/--/--/--|
 
[Verse 3 - Full snare]
I said now, [Bm] watch what you say, they'll be [Gmaj7] 
calling you a [F#m7] radical,
[(G)] A [A] liberal, oh, fan - [G] atical, [E7/G#] criminal,
Oh, won't you [Bm] sign up your name? We'd like to [Gmaj7] feel 
you're ac - [F#m7] ceptable,
[(G)] Re - [A] spectable, oh, pre - [G] sentable, a 
[E7/G#] vegetable, oh, take it, take it!
 
[Verse 4 - Sax solo - Full drums]
...Yeah!

[Chorus - drums as per others]
But at [D] night, when all the world's a - [G#m7b5/D] sleep, 
The questions run so [Gmaj7/D] deep for such a simple [C] man 
[Em/B] ------ [Am7] ---, [G] 
Won't you [D] please, please, tell me what we've [G#m7b5/D] learnt? 
 (Oh, won't you tell me? Umm, tell me what!) 
 I know it sounds ab - [Gmaj7/D] surd-----!,
(Can you hear me? I know!) (Oh, won't you help me?)
Please, tell me who I [C] am- [Em/B] ------ [Am7] ---- [G] --,

[Verse 1]
Do you remember
The 21st night of September?
Love was changin' the minds of pretenders
While chasin' the clouds away
Our hearts were ringin'
In the key that our souls were singin'
As we danced in the night, remember
How the stars stole the night away, oh, yeah
Hey, hey, hey

[Chorus]
Ba-dee-ya, say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya, dancin' in September
Ba-dee-ya, never was a cloudy day
Ba-du-da, ba-du-da, ba-du-da, ba-du
Ba-du-da, ba-du, ba-du-da, ba-du
Ba-du-da, ba-du, ba-du-da

[Verse 2]
My thoughts are with you
Holdin' hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love, remember
How we knew love was here to stay
Now December
Found the love that we shared in September
Only blue talk and love, remember
The true love we share today
Hey, hey, hey

[Chorus]
Ba-dee-ya, say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya, dancin' in September
Ba-dee-ya, never was a cloudy day
There was a
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya), say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya), dancin' in September
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya), golden dreams were shiny days

[Verse 3]
The bell was ringin', oh, oh
Our souls were singin'
Do you remember never a cloudy day? Yow

There was a
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya), say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya), dancin' in September
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya), never was a cloudy day
And we'll say
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya), say, do you remember?
Ba-dee-ya (dee-ya, dee-ya), dancin' in September
Ba-dee-ya (dee ya, dee-ya), golden dreams were shiny days
Ba-dee-ya, dee-ya, dee-ya
Ba-dee-ya, dee-ya, dee-ya
Ba-dee-ya, dee-ya, dee-ya, dee-ya!
Ba-dee-ya, dee-ya, dee-ya
