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

Monday, I could wait till Tuesday

If I make up my mind

Friday give me time, Saturday could wait

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.

Seven days will quickly go

Seven days, so many ways
Bb13-5 Cadd
But I can't run away
Fmaj7 F#7-5 G
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday …………… etc.
