C We used to chase that Bsus boy home from school
Am called him freckled faced, Am/G red headed fool
F he was different, F/E he wasn't cool like F me G
C sticks and stones Bsus did'nt break any bones
Am but we never let well enough Am/G alone
F and one day he F/E ran away from home you F see G
Am and I passed him as he F walked away
Am and in his eyes I heard him G say
C one of these G days your gonna F love me
F you'll sit down by yourself and G think
C about the G times you pushed and F shoved me
F and what good friends we might have G been
Am then your gonna F sigh a little
Amand maybe even F cry a little but
F one of these days you're gonna C love me
C Patty Sue was a Bsus small town beauty
Am I took one look and Am/G had to pull her to me
F lord knows she should've F/E seen right through me
F when I promised her the G world
C but at seventeen you only Bsus want one thing
Am I left her standing with my Am/G high school ring
F innocent tears in the F/E pourin rain as I walked
G away , Am and I still see her in my F dreams
Am and to this day she's G whispering
C One of these G days your gonna F love me
F You'll sit down by yourself and G think
C about the G time you turned F from me
F and what good friends we might have G been
Am then your gonna F sigh a little
Am and maybe even F cry a little but
F one of these days you're gonna C love me
Now Am everybody stands up
the F congregation sings
a C song of sweet forgiveness
and F as the chorus G rings
the Am wind blows clear my memories
the F pages start to turn
and C suddenly I'm singing
the F moment that I G learned
C One of these G days I'm gonna F love me
F and feel the joy of sweet G release
C one of these G days I'll rise a F bove me
F and at last I'll find some G peace
Am then I'm gonna F smile a little
Am and maybe even F laugh a little but
F one of these days I'm gonna C love me
