[Verse 1]
Am C Am
Too soon to be out o' me bed
Am C G Em Am
Too soon to be back at this bus queue caper,
Am C G Am
Or fumbling for change for me picture paper,
G Am
On a Monday morning.
[Verse 2]
Am C Am
Oh where did the weekend go?
Am C G Em Am
Where is the whisky and the beer I've tasted?
Am C G Am
Gone the same way as the pay I've wasted,
G Am
On a Monday morning.
[Verse 3]
Am C Am
If only the birds were booze,
Am C G Em Am
If only the sun was a party giver,
Am C G Em Am
If I could just give someone else my liver,
G Am
On a Monday morning.
[Verse 4]
Am C Am
My lover she lies asleep,
Am C G Em Am
My lover is warm and her heart is mellow,
Am C G Am
I'd give all the world to share her pillow,
G Am
On a Monday morning.
[Verse 5]
Am C Am
Too soon in the week for a smile,
Am C G Em Am
Too soon in the week for being civil.
Am C G Am
There's many a saint who would be a devil,
G Am
On a Monday morning.
