C5
"Seven days" was all she wrote
   D#5         A#5
A kind of ultimatum note
     G5               F5         F5
She gave to me, she gave to me
C5
When I thought the field had cleared
    D#5            A#5
It seems another suit appeared
     G5            E5
To challenge me, woe is me
 C5
Though I hate to make a choice
    D#5            A#5              G5
My options are decreasing mostly rapidly
 F5             F5
Well we'll see
C5
I don't think she'd bluff this time
   D#5             A#5
I really have to make her mine
      G5
It's plain to see
      E5        E5
It's him or me
 F5  F5           G5
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday
   E5         A5
If I make up my mind
 F5              G5     E5            A5
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind
F#/nr        A5    F#/nr
Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
     F5              C5
But Sunday'd be too late
C5
The fact he's over six feet ten
      D#5               A#5
Might instill fear in other men
     G5              F5                  F5
But not in me, The Mighty Flea (flee?)
C5
Ask if I am mouse or man
     D#5               A#5
The mirror squeaked, away I ran
       G5            E5
He'll murder me in time for his tea
C5
Does it bother me at all
    D#5        A#5            G5
My rival is Neanderthal it makes me think
   F5                   F5
Perhaps I need a drink
C5
IQ is no problem here
   D#5                 A#5              G5
We won't be playing scrabble for her hand I fear
   E5             E5
I need that beer
 F5  F5           G5
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday
   E5         A5
If I make up my mind
 F5              G5     E5            A5
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind
F#/nr        A5    F#/nr
Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
     F5              C5
But Sunday'd be too late
A#5               C5
Seven days will quickly go
A#5                   C5
The fact remains, I love her so
A#5         F5
Seven days, so many ways
A#5              C5
But I can't run away
 F5  F5           G5
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday
   E5         A5
If I make up my mind
 F5              G5     E5            A5
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind
F#/nr        A5    F#/nr
Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
     F5              C5
But Sunday'd be too late
      C5
Do I have to tell a story
      A#5                                C5  A#5
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met
       C5
It's a big enough umbrella
         A#5                             C5  A#5  C5
But it's always me that ends up getting wet
