Seven Days

"[Cmaj7]Seven days" was all she wrote
A [Eb]kind of ulti[Bb]matum note
She [G]gave to me, she [F]gave to me[Fadd9]
[Cmaj7]When I thought the field had cleared
It [Eb]seems another [Bb]suit appeared
To [G]challenge me, [Eadd9]woe is me
[Cmaj7]Though I hate to make a choice
My op[Eb]tions are dec[Bb]reasing mostly [G]rapidly
[F]Well, we'll see[Fadd9]
[Cmaj7]I don't think she'd bluff this time
I [Eb]really have to [Bb]make her mine
It's [G]plain to see
It's [E]him or me[E7]

[Fmaj7]Monday, [F#m7b5]I could wait till [G]Tuesday
If [E7/G#]I make up my [Am]mind
[Fmaj7]Wednesday would be [G]fine, [E7/G#]Thursday's on my [Am]mind
[C7/Bb]Friday give me [Am]time, [C7/Bb]Saturday could [Am]wait
But [Fm]Sunday'd be too [Cmaj7]late

[Cmaj7]The fact he's over six feet ten
Might [Eb]instill fear in [Bb]other men
But [G]not in me, The [F]Mighty [Fadd9]Flea (flee?)
[Cmaj7]Ask if I am mouse or man
The [Eb]mirror squeaked, [Bb]away I ran
He'll [G]murder me in [Eadd9]time for his tea
[Cmaj7]Does it bother me at all
My [Eb]rival is [Bb]Neanderthal, it [G]makes me think
Per[F]haps I need a drink[Fadd9]
[Cmaj7]IQ is no problem here
We [Eb]won't be playing [Bb]scrabble for her hand I [G]fear
I [E]need that beer[E7]

[Fmaj7]Monday, [F#m7b5]I could wait till [G]Tuesday
If [E7/G#]I make up my [Am]mind
[Fmaj7]Wednesday would be [G]fine, [E7/G#]Thursday's on my [Am]mind
[C7/Bb]Friday give me [Am]time, [C7/Bb]Saturday could [Am]wait
But [Fm]Sunday'd be too [Cmaj7]late

[Bb]Seven days will [Cmaj7]quickly go
[Bb]The fact remains, I [Cmaj7]love her so
[Bb]Seven days, [F]so many ways
[Bb]But I can't run [Cmaj7]away

[Fmaj7]Monday, [F#m7b5]I could wait till [G]Tuesday
If [E7/G#]I make up my [Am]mind
[Fmaj7]Wednesday would be [G]fine, [E7/G#]Thursday's on my [Am]mind
[C7/Bb]Friday give me [Am]time, [C7/Bb]Saturday could [Am]wait
But [Fm]Sunday'd be too [Cmaj7]late

Do I [Cmaj7]have to tell a story
Of a [Bb]thousand rainy days since we [Cmaj7]first [Bm]met
It's a [Cmaj7]big enough umbrella
But it's [Bb]always me that [Cmaj7]ends up getting [Bb]wet[C]
