[Verse 1]
E
  You can throw your luggage down
E
  Lose your cool and stomp around
            A                         E
But there's nothin', nothin' you can do

E
  Wipe away your girlfriend's tears
E
 Go to the bar and have some beers
            A                              E
There ain't no way, that bird's getting through


[Chorus]
A               E
  No plane on Sunday
G#                  A
Maybe be one come Monday
       E
Just a hopeless situation
         B                        D  A  D  A
Make the best of it's all you can do
          B   E
till they get through

[Verse 2]
E
  Overheard the engineer
E
 Say somethin' 'bout the landing gear
          A                           E
Now we're runnin' strictly on island time

E
 I know you've got someone back home
E
  So do I, it's tough alone
    A                           E
Aw, come on, it's just a minor crime


[Chorus]
A               E
  No plane on Sunday
G#                    A
Check it again come Monday
       E
Just a hopeless situation
         B                              D  A  D  A
Make the best of it's 'bout all you can do
      B    E
Baby, it's true

[Bridge]
A                          Bm
  We shouldn't spend these precious hours
          A/C#            D
tryin' to figure this out
Bm                          Bm/A
  We don't know where the story ends
G                            E/G#
 Let's don't go back to just being friends

[Verse 3]
E
 So they went walkin' on the beach
E
  Quarter moon within their reach
        A                                E
So they stole it and tucked it in their hearts

E
  That's when they heard the engines hum
E
 And realized the dawn had come
       A                    E
It was over, over from the start


[Chorus]
A               E
  No plane on Sunday
G#                    A
Just another lonely Monday
             E                 B
Aw, make the best of a bad situation's
                  D  A  D  A
'bout all you can do
      B    E
Baby, it's true
