D7    G7/13-                 C9 
On a clear day, rise and look around you 
           G7/13-        E7 
And you'll see who you are 
     Am7                    D4/7       D7 
On a clear day, how it will astound you 
 C#7       D7          G     Edim 
That the glow of your being 
   Am7   Fdim      Am7  D7 
Outshines ev'ry   star 
        Dm7     G7         Dm7                     G7 
You feel part of ev'ry mountain, sea and shore 
           C7M         Dm6      A7   
You can hear, from far and near 
                D7 
A world you've never heard before 
  Edim        G9              Bm5-/7     E7     Bm5-/7  
And on that clear day,  on that clear day 
 E7     Am7 G6   Am7     G6  Am7  D7  G Em Am7 D7 
You can see for     ever and    ever more 
D7    G7/13-                 C9 
On a clear day, rise and look around you 
           G7/13-        E7 
And you'll see who you are 
     Am7                    D4/7       D7 
On a clear day, how it will astound you 
 C#7       D7          G     Edim 
That the glow of your being 
   Am7   Fdim    Am7 D7 
Outshines ev'ry  star 
        Dm7     G7         Dm7                     G7 
You feel part of ev'ry mountain, sea and shore 
           C7M         Dm6      A7   
You can hear, from far and near 
                D7 
A world you've never heard before 
  Edim        G9              Bm5-/7     E7     Bm5-/7  
And on that clear day,  on that clear day 
E9  Am7 G6 Am7     G6  Am7  
You can see forever and ever      
    G6   Am7  G6 Am7  D7 G     
And ever and    ever more
