Seven Days  -  Sting  


Cadd9                             Eb          Bb
"Seven days" was all she wrote, a kind of ultimatum note  
     G               F         Fadd9
She gave to me, she gave to me
Cadd9                                     Eb           Bb
When I thought the field had cleared, it seems another suit appeared    
    G            E
To challenge me, woe is me
Cadd9                              Eb            Bb               G
Though I hate to make a choice, my options are decreasing mostly rapidly
F             Fadd9
Well we'll see
Cadd9                                  Eb             Bb
I don't think she'd bluff this time, I really have to make her mine
      G                 E      E7
It's plain to see, it's him or me


Fmaj7   F#7-5              G
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday
   E7/Ab         Am
If I make up my mind
Fmaj7              G     E7/Ab            Am
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind
Bb13-5          Am   Bb13-5         Am
Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
    Fm              Cadd9
But Sunday'd be too late


Cadd9                                   Eb             Bb 
The fact he's over six feet ten, might instill fear in other men
    G              F                  Fadd9
But not in me, The Mighty Flea (flee?)
Cadd9                         Eb                Bb
Ask if I am mouse or man, The mirror squeaked, away I ran
       G             E
He'll murder me, in time for his tea
Cadd9                        Eb         Bb           G
Does it bother me at all, my rival is Neanderthal it makes me think
   F                   Fadd9
Perhaps I need a drink
Cadd9                     Eb               Bb               G
IQ is no problem here, we won't be playing scrabble for her hand I fear
   E          E7
I need that beer

Fmaj7   F#7-5             G
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday ?????etc.


Bb13-5            Cadd
  Seven days will quickly go
Bb13-5                Cadd
  The fact remains, I love her so
Bb13-5            F
  Seven days, so many ways
Bb13-5           Cadd
But I can't run away
