My new friend Dianne on Facebook asked me a while ago for the chords to my “classic” song, “That Was the Day” off of the “That’s All Jim” album. I remember coming up with this song oh so long ago about my future wife, Becky. Little did I know that we’d get married seven years later…
Anyway, I’m so happy to have a fan in Dianne and I finally get to post the chords and lyrics for all to see. I hope you enjoy! Don’t know how the song goes? Check out my YouTube acoustic video below the chords.
That Was the Day
Written by Jim Fusco
Dm Em F D G (All on barre chords)
G Dm7
I remember the day a great man told me
Am7 D G
The perfect girl did not exist.
G Dm7
I said that if I should ever find her,
Am7 D G
I knew that I would not resist.
Dm7 Am7 Dm7 G
That was the day I met you; that was the day you stole my heart.
Dm7 Am7 Dm7 G
That was the day I met you; you were the one right from the start.
Dm7 C Dm7 G
And that was the day I met you; when I found out that you were true.
Dm7 Am7 Dm7 G
That was the day I met you; then I knew what I should do.
Right up to that day, my heart was hurting,
I never knew you’d come around.
I almost gave up all of my searching,
Right before you turned around.
CHORUS

Dm Em 6x
