[Intro] A Amaj7 Dadd9 [Verse 1]
A        Amaj7
It's 7.15, and Richard and

Dadd9
Betty are waking up soon

A                   Amaj7
The dog's on the bed, the paper unread,

Dadd9
the sun fades the moon

B7              D
no one is waiting

B7                  D
or tapping their foot

F#m         Esus4     Dadd9
Richard and Betty are sleeping

              E           A
And the world doesn't look

A          Amaj7                Dadd9
It's Friday, they both strip the bed, laundry day of the week

A          Amaj7                Dadd9
taking it slow, the wind softly blows through the sweet-smelling sheets
[Pre-Chorus]
B7              D
No one is waiting

B7              D
Rich takes her hand

F#m      Esus4      Dadd9
He spins Betty carefully

            E        A
the slowest slow dance
And he says [Chorus]
A          G
I think we hacked it

         D
Maybe we cracked it

                                    A
No there's nowhere that I'd rather be

             G
My wife is a beauty

             D
My life is a doozy
I've been smiling since '73
A
thank god

G
We said

D
Goodbye to the city

A            G             D
You'll never take me there alive

A
One car

G
No phone

D
might not be as pretty

                      G                      A
But what else would I need when you're by my side
A Amaj7 Dadd9 [Verse 2]
A                Amaj7                Dadd9
They go to the diner, and Betty picks salad to leave room for pie

A                         Amaj7
Her face lights up as she chews

                      Dadd9
and there's no better view for Richard tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
B7         D
No one is waiting

B7              D
the pie is so sweet

    F#m  Esus4    Dadd9                D          E               A
The kids left ten years ago, and Diner Day is the best day of the week
Betty says [Chorus]
A          G
I think we hacked it

         D
Maybe we cracked it

                                    A
No there's nowhere that I'd rather be

             G
I still feel it all

             D
Since we kissed in the fall
After dancing in '73
A
Thank god

G
We said

D
Goodbye to the city

A            G             D
You'll never take me there alive

A
One car

G
No phone

D
might not be as pretty

                    G                        E
but my god it feels good with just you by my side
[Bridge]
E              D
Make a home in nowhere
(Thank god we said goodbye to the city)
E              D
Make a home with me
(I still feel it all since we kissed in the fall)
E              D
Make a home in nowhere
(one car, no phone, might not be as pretty)
E              D
Make a home with me
(Thank god we said goodbye) [Outro] A Amaj7 Dadd9
A           Amaj7
Richard and Betty turn out the light

Dadd9
The day is now done

A                     Amaj7
Holding hands as they sleep

                  Dadd9
They both end the week
Ready for another one
