INTRO: E A E A
VERSE
E
Hey, my name is Jim, I fought in Vietnam
A
My life's a bargain basement, all the good shit's gone
E
I just can't hold a job. Where did I go wrong?
A
I'm sleeping in my car; My dreams moved on
E
My name is Billy Jean, my love is bought and sold
A
I'm only sixteen, I feel a hundred years old
E
My foster daddy went and took my innocence away
A
The street life ain't much better but at least I'm getting paid
BRIDGE
B
Tuesday just might go my way
A E
It can't get worse than yesterday
G#m
Thursdays, Fridays ain't been kind
A F#m7
But somehow I'll survive
E
Hey, man, I'm alive
F#m A
As long as I can breathe, as long as I can fight
E F#m A
Hey man, I know I'll get by
E F#m A
When I wanna die I pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride
B A E
I'm feeling like a Monday but I wish I were a Saturday night
VERSE
E
I can't say my name, my life is on the line
A
They say that I'm to blame, that I'm guilty of a crime
E
I wish that I could be in another time and place
A
With someone else's soul and someone else's face
BRIDGE
B A E
This world ain't so cut and dry but I can't 'why?' wrong or right
G#m A F#m7
I ain't here to justify what I gotta do to survive
E
Hey, man, I'm alive
F#m A
As long as I can breathe, as long as I can fight
E F#m A
Hey man, I know I'll get by
E F#m A
When I wanna die I pick up all the pieces and what's left of my pride
B A E
I'm feeling like a Monday but I wish I were a Saturday night
B A E C#m E C#m
I'm feeling like a Monday but someday I'll be Saturday night
