[Intro:]
E
Hey man, I'm alive
Asus2
I'm taking each day a night at a time
Bsus4
I'm feeling like a Monday
Asus2 E
but someday I'll be Saturday night
[Verse I:]
E
Hey, my name is Jim, where did I
go wrong?
G#m
My life's a bargain basement,
all the good shit's gone
A
I just can't hold a job, where do
I belong?
E B
Been sleeping in my car, my dreams
E
move on
[Verse II:]
E
My name is Billy Jean,
my love was bought and sold
G#m
I'm only sixteen, I feel a hundred
years old
A
My foster daddy went,
took my innocence away
B
The street life ain't much better,
Bsus4 B
but at least I get paid
[Pre-chorus:]
C#m A
And Tuesday just might go my way
E
It can't get worse than yesterday
G#m
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
A F#m
But somehow I'll survive
[Chorus I:]
E
Hey man, I'm alive,
Asus2
I'm takin' each day and night
at a time
E
Yeah, I'm down, but I know I'll
Bsus4
get by
Asus2 Bsus4
Hey hey hey, hey man, gotta live
my life
E
Like I ain't got nothin'
C#m
but this roll of the dice
Bsus4
I'm feelin' like a Monday,
Asus2 E A
but someday I'll be Saturday night
[Verse III:]
E
Now I can't say my name,
or tell you where I am
G#m
I want to blow myself away,
don't know if I can
A
I wish that I could be
in some other time and place
B
With someone else's soul,
someone else's face
[Pre-chorus:]
C#m A
And Tuesday just might go my way
E
It can't get worse than yesterday
G#m
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
A F#m
But somehow I'll survive
[Chorus:]
E
Hey man, I'm alive,
Asus2
I'm takin' each day and night at a time
E Bsus4
Yeah, I'm down, but I know I'll get by
Asus2 Bsus4
Hey hey hey, hey man, gotta live my
life
E
I'm gonna pick up all the pieces
C#m
and what's left of my pride
Bsus4
I'm feelin' like a Monday,
Asus2 E
but someday I'll be Saturday night
