Someday I'll Be Saturday Night

(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



(Chorus)
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



(Chorus)
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
