Verse 1
I'm (G major) going to sing you a
Lead
Belly song, (D major) all right? (G major)
(D major) Lead
Belly wrote some great songs.
We don't always hear them
because they're (G major) kind of weird.
(D major) Unless you (G major) like them.
Now this one's (D major) called
On a
Monday, but it's not just about
Monday.
It's about
Tuesday (G major) and
Wednesday,
Thursday (D major) and
Friday,
Saturday, (G major) and the other one.
(D major) If you ever thought you had a bad week in this world,
this is the song to sing. (G major)
On (D major) (G major) a
Monday, I was arres (D major) ted
And on a
Tuesday, I got locked up in jail (G major)
And (D major) (G major) on a
Wednesday, (D major) my (G major) trial was attested
(D major) And on a
Thursday, nobody would go my bail (G major)
Yes, (D major) I'm gone, (G major) (D major) al (G major) most (D major) gone (G major)
Yes, (D major) I'm (G major) gone, I'm almost gone (D major)
(A major) Yes, (D major) I'm (G major) gone, I'm almost gone
And I ain't (D major) gonna be seeing them
pretty women no more (G major)
Take these stripes,
these stripes from off my (E minor) shoulder (D major)
Take these chains,
these chains from off of my (G major) leg
Well, (E minor) (G major) these stripes,
(D major) you know (G major) that they don't bother (D major) me
But these chains,
these chains are killin' me dead (G major)
Yes, (D major) I'm (G major) gone, almost gone (E minor)
(G major) Yes, I'm gone, (D major) I'm almost (G major) gone (D major)
Yes, (A major) (D major) I'm (G major) gone, I'm almost gone
And I (D major) ain't gonna be seein'
them pretty women no more (G major)
Now (D major) on a
Friday, (G major) my baby went out a (D major) -walkin'
And on a
Saturday, you know she
locked up the door (G major)
And on a
Sunday, she must have
done some talk (D major) in'
Cause on a
Monday, she had sold all of my clothes (G major)
Yes, (D major) I'm gone, (G major) almost (D major) gone (G major)
Yes, I'm gone, I'm almost (D major) gone
Yes, (A major) (D major) I'm (G major) gone, almost gone
And I ain't (D major) gonna be seeing
them pretty women no (G major) more
