[F]It was a slow

[Verse 1]
[Gm]day [G]and the sun was beat[C]ing
On the sol[Gm]diers [Csus4]by
the side of the [C]road
There was a [G]bright light,
a shattering of [Gm]shop win[C]dows
The [Gm]bomb [C]in the baby [Csus4]carriage
was [C]wired to the radio

[Verse 2]
[F]These are the days of mir[Bb]acle and won[C]der
[F]This is the lon[Csus4]g distance c[C]all
[F]The way the camera
follows [Bb]us in sl[C]o- m[Csus4]o
[F]The way we look to us [C]all, oh yeah

[Verse 3]
[F]The way we look to a
distant constel[C]lation
Dy[F]ing in a corner [Csus4]of the sk[C]y
[F]These are the days of mir
[Bb]acle and [C]wonder
[F]Don't cry [Csus4]baby don't cry,[C] don't cry

[Verse 4]
[G]It[Gm][C][G][Gm][F][C]
[G][Gm][Bb][C][Gm][C][F][C][F]
was a [G]dry wind and it swept [Gm]across the [Csus4]desert
[C]And it cur[Gm]led int[C]o the circle of birth
And the [Gm]dead sand falling on the chil[C]dren
The [Gm]mothers and [C]the fathers

[Verse 5]
and the automatic earth
[F]These are the days of miracl[Bb]e and won[C]der

It's a [Gm]turn- [G]around jump shot,
it's [Gm]everybody [Bb]jump star[C]t
It's [Gm]every gen[Bb]era [C]tion throws
a hero up the pop chart
[Gm]Medicine is magical and
magic[Bb]al is a[C]rt
Think of the [Gm]Boy i[Bb]n th[C]e Bubble an[F]d the

[Verse 8]
And I believe there're [F]lasers
[Bb]in the j[C]ungle

[F]The way we look to us [C]all, oh yeah

[Verse 10]

distant constel[C]lation
Dy[F]ing in a corner of [C]the sky
[F]These are the days of
miracle and [C]wonder
