Verse 1
(A minor) Up every morning
at the crack of dawn (G major)
Nights as short as the days are long
(D major) Life turned out to be another magazine (E minor)
(A minor) I'm livin' with a stranger now
(G major) The girl I knew got away somehow
She (D major) went out with two bit gasoline
I (E minor) wanna go back,
you know what I mean, ah (A minor)

Verse 2
When the word was (A minor) Thunderbird
(G major) And the price was 40 twice (D major)
Drinkin' wine and lovin'
you was fun (E minor)
Oh but (A minor) love turned out to be
a passin' thing (G major)
Different bird of a different wing
Some (D major) damn fool put a dollar (E minor)
29 on a jug of Thunderbird wine
And Lord, (A minor) I don't know if
I'm gonna make it
I don't (G major) know if I'll have
the strength to take it
(D major) Everything's hung up in yesterday
(E minor)

Verse 3
(A minor) Married
to a civic- minded social girl
Tak (G major) in' shortcuts in a woman's world
She (D major) won't let her hair
down when I'm home (E minor)
So (A minor) ciety is just slavery and
se (G major) curity is killing me
I (D major) worked hard for it, but I give it all away
(E minor) If I could go back to yesterday, ah (A minor)
