[Verse 1]
G          C                         G
You and me sittin' in the back of my memory
       G         C                        G
Like a honey bee buzzin' round a glass of sweet Chablis
D           C                        G 
Radio's on, windows rolled up and my mind's rolled down
D                       C                    G
Headlights shining like silver moons rollin' on the ground

[Verse 2]
G               C              G   
We made love in every way love can be made
    G            C                    G    
And we made time look like time could never fade
D            C                G
Friday night we both made the guitar hum
D             C                         D
Saturday made Sunday feel like it would never come

[Chorus]
           G
Gonna be a long Monday
C
Sittin' all alone on a mountain
                G
By a river that has no end
           G
Gonna be a long Monday
D
Stuck like the tick of a clock
              C      G
That's come unwound again

[Break]

[Verse 3]
G             C                  G
Soul to soul, heart to heart and cheek to cheek
G             C                      G
Come on baby, give me a kiss that'll last all week
    D              C             G
The thought of you leavin' again brings me down
    D          C                      D
The promise of your sweet love brings me around

[Chorus]
           G
Gonna be a long Monday
C
Sittin' all alone on a mountain
                G
By a river that has no end
           G
Gonna be a long Monday
D
Stuck like the tick of a clock
              C      D         G
That's come unwound again and again

[Two-line refrain/outro, from live album 'In Person & On Stage']
D                 C                             G
Seven deadly sins sleepin' at the bottom of the deep blue sea
D                     C                           G
Objects in the mirror may appear nearer than they seem to be
