Manic Monday

Words & Music:

Prince

 

D              Dsus4       A           G            D  Dsus4  A  G  D

Six o'clock already, I was just in the middle of a dream.

I was kissin' Valentino by a crystal blue Italian stream.

But I can't be late 'cause then I guess I just won't get paid.

These are the days when you wish your bed was already made.

 

CHORUS:

A7                      D    G

It's just another manic Monday.

  D           G

I wish it was Sunday.

'Cause that's my funday.

My I-don't-have-to-runday.

     G            A     D

It's just another manic Monday.

 

Have to catch an early train, got to be to work by nine.

And if I had an aeroplane I still couldn't make it on time.

'Cause it takes me so long just to figure out what I'm gonna wear.

Blame it on the train, but the boss is already there.

 

CHORUS:

 

BRIDGE:

Bm                                                     E7

All of the nights, why did my lover have to pick last night to get down?

G                        A

Doesn't it matter that I have to feed the both of us?

  Bm

Employment's down.

   G                       E7

He tells me in his bedroom voice,

E7                               A

"C'mon honey, let's go make some noise."

Time it goes so fast when you're having fun.

 

CHORUS:  [2x]
