G D C
you've been sleeping in a field but you look real rested
G D C
you set out to outrage but you can't get arrested
G D C
you say your image is new but it looks well tested
D Em
you're lost without a crowd yet you go your own way
G
you say your summer has gone
D C
now the winter is crawlin' in
G
they say that even in your day
D C
somehow you never could quite fit in
G
though it's cold outside
D C
I know the summer's gonna come again
D
because you know what they say
Em
every dog has his day
G D C
you're a misfit, afraid of yourself so you run away and hide
G
you've been a misfit all your life
D C
why don't you join the crowd and come inside
G D C
you wander round this town like you've lost your way
G
you had your chance in your day
D C
yet you threw it all away
D
but you know what they say
Em
every dog has his day
G Bm C C/B Am
look at all the losers and the mad eyed gazers
G Bm C C/B Am
look at all the loonies and the sad eyed failures
C D G D Em
they've given up living 'cos they just don't care
C
so take a good look around
the misfits are everywhere
(instrumental like verse: G D C, Ray sings "la la la la la")
G D C
this is your chance, this is your time
G
so don't throw it away
D C
you can have your day
D
'cause it's true what they say
Em
every dog has his day
(repeat first Chorus)
you're a misfit, afraid of yourself so you run away and hide
you've been a misfit all your life
but why don't you join the crowd and come inside
you wander round this town like you've lost your way
you had your chance in your day
yet you threw it all away
now you're lost in the crowd
yet, still go your own way
it ends in Em
