I Don't Like Mondays

    C              Em
The silicon chip inside her head
     F               G
Gets switched to overload
    C                    Em
And nobody's gonna go to school today
            F                 G
She's gonna make them stay at home
    Am                 G
And daddy doesn't understand it
          C                    F
He always said she was good as gold
           F
And he can see no reasons
          F
Cos there are no reasons
     F                        G
What reason do you need to be shown

        C               Em
Tell me why I don't like mondays
        F                G
Tell me why I don't like mondays
        C                Em
Tell me why I don't like mondays
        F                    G
I wanna shoo-oo-oo-oo - oo - oot
              C
The whole day down

    C                Em
The Telex machine is kept so clean
       F                  G
And it types to a waiting world
    C
And Mother feels so shocked
         Em
Father's world is rocked
          F
And their thoughts turn to
      G
Their own little girl
Am                       G
Sweet sixteen ain't that peachy keen
       C                  F
No, it ain't so neat to admit defeat
         F
They can see no reasons
          F
Cos there are no reasons
     F              G
What reasons do you need

        C                Em
Tell me why I don't like mondays
        F                G
Tell me why I don't like mondays
        C                Em
Tell me why I don't like mondays
        F                     G
I wanna shoo-oo-oo-oo - oo - oot
              Am                             F
The whole day down, down, down, shoot it all down

            C                        Em
And all the playing's stopped in the playground now
    F                      G
She wants to play with her toys a while
    C                      Em
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
        F               G
And the lesson today is how to die
             Am
And then the bullhorn crackles
        G
And the captain tackles
         C                          F
With the problems and the how's and why's
           F
And he can see no reasons
          F
Cos there are no reasons
     F                    G
What reason do you need to die

        C                Em
Tell me why I don't like mondays
        F                G
Tell me why I don't like mondays
        C                Em
Tell me why I don't like mondays
        F                    G
I wanna shoo-oo-oo-oo - oo - oot
              C
The whole day down
