But if you want } { to do this, I guess it all sounds better with barre (whatever) chords, } { otherwise the strings will ring too much... } Cmaj7 "Seven days" was all she wrote D# A# A kind of ultimatum note G F Fadd9 She gave to me, she gave to me Cmaj7 When I thought the field had cleared D# A# It seems another suit appeared G E To challenge me, woe is me Cmaj7 Though I hate to make a choice D# A# G My options are decreasing mostly rapidly F Fadd9 Well we'll see Cmaj7 I don't think she'd bluff this time D# A# I really have to make her mine G It's plain to see E E7 It's him or me Fmaj7 Fmaj7/F# G Monday, I could wait till Tuesday E7/G# Am If I make up my mind Fmaj7 G E7/G# Am Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind F#7-5/nr Am F#7-5/nr Friday give me time, Saturday could wait Fm Cmaj7 But Sunday'd be too late Cmaj7 The fact he's over six feet ten D# A# Might instill fear in other men G F Fadd9 But not in me, The Mighty Flea (flee?)
