Lonely Saturday
View chords used in this chart
E D A E
Thursday evening six o'clock
E7 A
I stepped into a world of living all alone
B7
Just a simple note that read
A E
I cannot explain why this must be but now I've gone
E7 A
Friday all day long I could tell myself that's what I wanted anyway
E
But Friday night has left me
B A E
Left me coming down with only lonely Saturday
E
I could take a walk uptown
E7 A
I could have a drink or two with some old friends of mine
B7
But they'd ask me how she's been
A E
I don't think that I could take it I would die inside
E7 A
I can live without a lot but living without her has something new to
say
E
Cause Friday night has left me
B A E
Left me coming down with only lonely Saturday
A C#m F#m A E
Time on my hands hope the lord understands a man shouldn't feel this
way
B A E
Time and time again wish that clock would spend this lonely Saturday
SOLO
B A E
Time and time again wish that clock would spend this lonely Saturday
E D A E
