Seven Days - Sting from the album "Ten Summoner's Tales"
Transcription by Luis Ferreira
(If you want to give that cool sound of the beginning of the song, just
pull the A string alone and then the D, G and B strings simultaneously,
and immediately mute them with your palm, or whatever. But if you want
to do this, I guess it all sounds better with barre (whatever) chords,
otherwise the strings will ring too much...)
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7 "Seven days" was all she wrote Eb Bb A kind of ultimatum note G F Fadd9 She gave to me, she gave to me Cmaj7 When I thought the field had cleared Eb Bb It seems another suit appeared G Eadd9 To challenge me, woe is me Cmaj7 Though I hate to make a choice Eb Bb G My options are decreasing mostly rapidly F Fadd9 Well, we'll see Cmaj7 I don't think she'd bluff this time Eb Bb I really have to make her mine G It's plain to see E E7 It's him or me
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 F#m7b5 G Monday, I could wait till Tuesday E7/G# Am If I make up my mind Fmaj7 G E7/G# Am Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind C7/Bb Am C7/Bb Am Friday give me time, Saturday could wait Fm Cmaj7 But Sunday'd be too late
[Verse 2]
Cmaj7 The fact he's over six feet ten Eb Bb Might instill fear in other men G F Fadd9 But not in me, The Mighty Flea (flee?) Cmaj7 Ask if I am mouse or man Eb Bb The mirror squeaked, away I ran G Eadd9 He'll murder me in time for his tea Cmaj7 Does it bother me at all Eb Bb G My rival is Neanderthal, it makes me think F Fadd9 Perhaps I need a drink Cmaj7 IQ is no problem here Eb Bb G We won't be playing scrabble for her hand I fear E E7 I need that beer
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 F#m7b5 G Monday, I could wait till Tuesday E7/G# Am If I make up my mind Fmaj7 G E7/G# Am Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind C7/Bb Am C7/Bb Am Friday give me time, Saturday could wait Fm Cmaj7 But Sunday'd be too late
[Bridge]
Bb Cmaj7 Seven days will quickly go Bb Cmaj7 The fact remains, I love her so Bb F Seven days, so many ways Bb Cmaj7 But I can't run away
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 F#m7b5 G Monday, I could wait till Tuesday E7/G# Am If I make up my mind Fmaj7 G E7/G# Am Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind C7/Bb Am C7/Bb Am Friday give me time, Saturday could wait Fm Cmaj7 But Sunday'd be too late
[Outro]
Cmaj7 Do I have to tell a story Bb Cmaj7 Bb Of a thousand rainy days since we first met Cmaj7 It's a big enough umbrella Bb Cmaj7 Bb C But it's always me that ends up getting wet
