If there are errors, let me know. Capo on 3 Intro (during the harmonica part) C Am twice Dm C G twice C Am twice Dm C G Dm G C G F Am G Black Monday is coming around again, and it C G F Am G feels like a friend who just won't take a Dm G F hint. Cause it's hanging me up and it's C Am G hanging around. And I'm feeling far too F C Am lost to feel too profound when the tone of G F C Am my voice is the loneliest sound, my heroes G F C have all become pathetic clowns and I'm Am G F C feeling far too lost to feel too profound. My friend Kate, you laugh like a tidal wave. But Charley don't surf on your laughter on Black Mondays. And the shadows I feel are the shadows in me. *And not even your face or your beautiful smile or the curve of your breasts or your laughing bright eyes can make me believe I'm a winner tonight, when Monday morning is just out of sight.* BRIDGE Am G Am Well I know a story about a man who couldn't G Dm see past his fingertips. To reach out and G Dm G touch it was just too much like he needs Am G Am it. And I know a woman who reached out to G me and all she got were my barb wire hands, Dm G Dm and I won't feel too proud if she can't G depend on me when Black Monday starts coming round. (Chorus chords again, underneath the harmonica) My friend Kate, you are sad and beautiful. And the way I am has never been too good for us. Cause I'm too blind to hear and I'm too deaf to see. But I still have a voice that can call out your name with a gut full of beer and a head full of pain. I can lie in your arms and be lovers again and thank God Tuesday morning is just hours away, thank God Tuesday morning is just hours away. Yeah. Dm G F C F Do you know I won't let you down, let you C Dm G F C down? Rest your head till I come around, F C Dm G F come around. Do you know you can count on C F C Dm G F me, count on me? Laugh out loud, I see what C F C you see, what you see. (That pattern continues on until fade out, except sometimes at the end of a verse, Ron will go mental and switch back and forth between F and C. Listen to get the timing. Sounds cool if you get it right.) More Low to Come (*Isn't that the best Ron Hawkins lyrics you've ever heard, by the way?*)
