Tomorrow Can Pay The Rent Chords by Spin Doctors

I can't claim this one as my own; Duncan Leslie worked this one out but I thought I'd post it anyway!

Chords:
   Bm  Bm/E    Eb7   D7   H1   H2  H3  H4  H5  H6  H7
e|-2-----2-----4-----3-----------------7---6---5---3---|
B|-3-----3-----3-----2----10---8---8---7---6---5---3---|
G|-4-----4-----4-----3----10---8---9---7---6---5---3---|
D|-4-----2----------------9----9---7---7---6---5---3---|
A|-X-----X-----------------------------7---6---5---3---|
E|-2-----0-----------------------------7---6---5---3---|

The 'H' chords are weird jazz things and hard to work out their real names - so I've left them like that!

The intro should be easy to work out; its just plucking over Bm, Bm/E, D7 and  sldie up to A on top E.

Then
Bm Bm/E Eb7 D7
Bm Bm/E Eb7 D7

Verse
Bm                  Bm/E       H1
The preacher said, "richer or poorer",
   H2                  H3
My mama said, "thick or thin",
        H4       H5
You can kiss me, baby
          H6          H7                    Bm Bm/E Eb7 D7

Chorus

And, baby, you know it's simple
            C                Eb7
It's just a matter of common sense
              G        Eb7
I want you to love me, baby,
     C            D       Eb7

C             D
Tomorrow can pay the rent

Bm Bm/E Eb7 D7

   Bm          Bm/E       H1
My friends all think I'm crazy

We got our hands full with today

Chorus

Middle Eight:
       Am
When I wake up in the morning
       Am
And see you in the light
        H7                                   Am      D7
You can love me, baby, love me with all your might
When I lay down in the evening
And see you in the shade
I feel your touch and I
know I've got it made
Got it made

I'm gonna listen for your laughter
I'm gonna kiss you into next year
I got my blue bandana
In case I need to dry your tears
And, baby, you know it's simple
It's just a matter of common sense
I want you to love me, baby,
'til tomorrow can pay the rent
Tomorrow can pay the rent

Tomorrow can pay the rent...

Enjoy!
