[Intro]
D, G, Em7
[Verse 1]
D G D
I'm having a bad day
(D) G D
There's nothing you can do or say
(D) G
To help me through this bad day
Em7 A
I think I'll just stay in my room
[Verse 2]
They didn't need to say
That they didn't want to play
I could have guessed it anyway
And that's why I'm here in my room

[Chorus]
Em7 A
Seems like I'm the only one
Em7 A
Who's not outside and having fun
Em7 A
I wish this day had never begun
Em7 A
I think I'll just stay in my room
[Instrumental]
D, G, D, G
[Verse 3]
Sometimes I wanna run and hide
Today I wanna stay inside
Tell my bike to take itself for a ride
I'm staying in today
[Verse 4]
See the toys lying on the floor
I don't want them anymore
I think I'll sell them back to the store
Or give them all away
[Chorus]
It feels like I'm the only one
Who's not outside and having fun
I wish this day had never begun
I think I'll just stay in my room
[Verse 5]
I don't need hugs and I don't want food
I wanna stay here in this lonely mood
I don't care if people think I'm rude
I wish they would all go away
[Verse 6]
Dad comes in and tells me with a kiss
Everyone has days like this
Brought my dinner said that I was missed
I think I'll be okay
[Chorus]
I know I'm not the only one
To stay inside and watch the fun
Thanks a lot that helped a ton
Tomorrow's gonna be a better day
