[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 1]
 
   E
Hey, my name is Jim, where did I go wrong?
   Abm
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           E
Been sleeping in my car, my dreams move on
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
   E
My name is Billy Jean, my love was bought and sold
   Abm
I'm only sixteen, I feel a hundred years old
   A
My foster daddy went, took my innocence away
    B                                     Bsus4       B
The street life ain't much better, 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
Abm
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
    A               F#m
But somehow I'll survive
 
 
[Chorus 1]
 
E                       Asus2
Hey man, I'm alive, 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                            C#m
Like I ain't got nothin' but this roll of the dice
    Bsus4                      Asus2                 E        A
I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
E
Now I can't say my name, or tell you where I am
          Abm
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
Abm
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
    A               F#m
But somehow I'll survive
 
 
[Chorus]
 
E                       Asus2
Hey man, I'm alive, 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                                 C#m
I'm gonna pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride
    Bsus4                      Asus2                    E
I'm feelin' like a Monday, but someday I'll be Saturday night
