[Chorus]
F E
You’ll always be my Day 1
Em6 Cm9
Day zero when I was no one
F E
I’m nothing by myself, you and no one else
Em6 Cm9
Thankful youâre my Day 1
F
Thankful youâre my

[Verse 1]
F E
I got lucky finding you
Em6 Cm9
I won big the day that I came across you
F E
Cause when you’re with me, I don’t feel blue
Em6 Cm9
Not a day goes by that I would not redo

[Pre-Chorus]
F E
Everybody wants to love
Em6 Cm9
It’s easy when you try hard enough

[Verse 2]
F E
When I first met you, it just felt right
Em6 Cm9
It’s like I met a copy of myself that night
F E
I don’t believe in fate as such
Em6 Cm9
But we were meant to be together that’s my hunch

[Pre-Chorus]
F E
Everybody wants true love
Em6 Cm9
It’s out there if you look hard enough, enough, enough

[Chorus]
F E
You’ll always be my Day 1
Em6 Cm9
Day zero when I was no one
F E
I’m nothing by myself, you and no one else
Em6 Cm9
Thankful you’re my Day 1
F
Thankful you’re my Day 1
[Bridge](I haven’t figured out this part yet, not sure if it’s the same chords)
Hour by hour, minute by minute
I got mad love for you and you know it
I would never leave you on your own
I just want you to know

How to play Day 1: key, chords and progression

Day 1 by Honne is centred on C major (no sharps or flats). The song uses 4 chords: F, E, Em6 and Cm9.

Most of the song cycles through F – E – Em6 – Cm9 (IV – III – iii6 – i9 in C major). In solfa, that is fah – mi – mi – doh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Good to know: F, Em6 and Cm9 are the tricky part on guitar (barre or movable shapes). Slow the change down until it is clean; on piano and ukulele they are simpler.
