Well I got outa work and I headed for the neighborhood beer joint
        E5                                               A5
I sat around and had a beer with the boys like I always do
         D5                                                A5
Well I didn?t have nothin? to say and well there aint no point
         E5                                             A5
There?s something about a Monday that always makes me blue
                  A5                                                           A5
Well it was way after dark so I knew my wife and kids were waitin?           E           
                                      A5
And I guess I took a left where I generally take a right                 D               
                                           A5
Well I filled ?er up with gas and checked the oil at the Texaco station     E            
                                                 A5
I threw the car seat into the dumpster and headed out into the night

BRIDGE
 D5           G5         A5
Woooo-ooo-oo-oo blue mood.  (moon?)              E                                       
             A5
There?s somethin? ?bout a Monday that always makes me blue

        E5                                A5
Well I headed south on 35 hell bent for Baudo(?)
     E5                               A5
I?d never had the truck up past 75 before                          D                     
                                            A5
Well there?s something ?bout that little red line always looked so final
       E5                                                A5
Buddy you?d be surprised how fast a Chevrolet truck can go
        E5                                    A5
Now in Mexico they got a little place called Boy?s Town
        E5                                               A5
Where a man is still a man if you know what I?m talkin? about
         D5                                        A5
Well I walked into the Cadillac Bar and I laid my cash down
           E5                                                            A5
I said ?There?s plenty more where that came from.? And the lights went out

        E5                                             A5
Well I woke up in the county jail across the line in Laredo
         E5                                                      A5
I had a headache and the deputy was a starin? at me through the door
         D5                                           A5
He said ?how you got across that river alive I don?t know,
         E5                                                   A5
But you wife just made your bail so now your in her debt for sure.?
        E5                                                   A5
Now my wife she called my boss and she lied so I got my job back
        E5                                                A5
And the boys down at the plant they whisper and stare at me
         D5                                                     A5
Well my wife she finds a lot of little jobs to keep me on the right track
         E5                                        A5
That?s a small price to pay for a week of living dangerously
  D5       G5        A5
Woooo-ooo-ooo-oo blue me
          E5                                       A5
That?s a small price to pay for a week of living dangerously
