When Word Was Thunderbird(Chords)

	        Verse 1: 
      Am 
	Up every morning at the crack of dawn 
      G   
	Nights as short as the days are long 
         D                                 Em   
	Life turned out to be another magazine 
      Am    
	Livin' with a stranger now 
      G 
	Girl i knew got away somehow 
         D                             Em   
	She went out with two bit gasoline 
 
	On the go,back - you know what i mean 

             Am                         
	Now when the word was Thunderbird 
      G  
	And the price recorded twice 
      D                                  Em 
	Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun
 
 
 
Verse 2: 
      Am 
	Ah,but love turned out to be a passin' thing 
      G  
	Different bird of a different wing 
         D                                  Em   
	Some damn fool put a dollar twenty nine 
 
	On a jug of Thunderbird wine 
             Am        
	And Lord i don't know if i'm gonna make it 
         G 
	Don't know if i'll have the strength to take it 
         D                             Em 
	Everything's hung up in yesterday 
 
 
Verse 3: 
      Am 
	There's you a secret-minded social girl 
         G 
	Takin' short cuts in a woman's world 
         D                                    Em    
	She won't let her hair down when i'm home 
          Am   
	Society's just slavery 
             G 
	And security is killing me 
         D                                     Em 
	I work hard for it but i give it all away 
 
	If i could go back to yesterday 
 
 
Chorus (x2).
