Em/F#

[Verse 1]

G Em

Take a few more steps

Em/F# G

But patiently

Em Em/F# G

It's a long way down

Em Em/F# G

Just light that cigarette and then inhale

Em Em/F# G

You've had a tough break now

Em Em/F# G

But safe your breath, there's no use in whining

Em Em/F# G

Things haven't gone right this time but

Em Em/F# G

You've a week ahead to beweep those crimes

Em Em/F#

And I've perceived you tried

[Chorus]

C G

Monday may be coming

Em G C

But there was yesterday and the day before it, son

Enjoy how you've been stung for now

Em G C

And praise the day if you can't ignore it, no

There'll be other women

Em G C

And before the sun is down you'll be posessed by another lover

So look alive my boy

Em G

You've yet another week to cover

C G

And nature can be kind

Em G Am C G Em Em/F# G

To persevering eyes

[Verse 2]

Em Em/F# G

You may be half deaf now but

Em Em/F# G

Listen to my eyes

Em Em/F# G

They say things you cannot see wich is why

Em Em/F# G

they can hear your bootless cries

Em Em/F# G

The times are tough, but theres no use moaning

Em Em/F# G

You should know youre not alone when youre down there

Em Em/F# G

It hurts because you care, and you should know

Em Em/F# G

the good things go to he who dares

[Chorus]

C G

Monday may be coming

Em G C

But there was yesterday and the day before it, son

Enjoy how you've been stung for now

But if you pay your way, you can pave your way into the summer

So look alive my boy

To persevering eyes

[Verse 3]

Em Em/F# G

You're nearly there so you should prepare

Em Em/F# G

For a harder grind

Em Em/F# G

The genuine test comes post-success

Em Em/F# G

And there's something else to find

Em Em/F# G

The city is rough, but theres no use wailing

Em Em/F# G

You seem to be impaled by your own mind

Em Em/F# G

But mind you, you should save your size

Em Em/F# G

For size of relief on the other side

[Chorus]

C G

Monday may be coming

Em G C

But there was yesterday and the day before it, son

Enjoy how you've been stung for now

Em G C

And praise the day if you can't ignore it, no

Go ahead and drain that bottle

To the bottom, boy

G C

It may be just what you need

See it all for what it is

Em G C

But even then it still won't be easy

Life ain't no fairytale

Em G C

But if you pay your way, you can pave your way into the summer

So look alive my boy

Em G

You've yet another week to cover

C G

And nature can be kind

Em G Am C G Em Em/F# G

To persevering eyes
