Chords
I play most 7-chord like they are diplayd below. Kind of blues-chords as I was taught some time ago.
You can get it groooving really good this way, as you are almost sliding down Bm7-A7-G7---F7.

Friday left me fumblin' with the blues
Bm7 A7 G7 F#7*
And it's hard to win when you always lose
Bm7 A7 G7
Because the nightspots spend your spirit
Bm7* E7
beat your head against the wall
Bm F#7 Bm F#7 Bm
two dead-ends you still got to choose
Bm F#7 Bm F#7 Bm
You know the bartenders they all know my name
Bm7 A7 G7 F#7*
and they catch me when I'm pulling up lame
Bm7 A7 G7 F#7* Bm7* E7
and I'm a pool-shooting-shimmy-shyester shaking my head
Bm F#7 Bm F#7 Bm
when I should be living clean in stead
Bm F#7 Bm F#7 Bm
You know the ladies I've been seeing off and on
Bm7 A7 G7 F#7*
well they spend your love then they're gone
Bm7 A7 G7 F#7* Bm7* E7
you can't be loving someone who is savage and cruel
Bm F#7 Bm F#7 Bm
Take your love and then they leave on out of town... No they do...[Solo]

When I'm falling in love, It's such a breeze
but it's standing up that's so hard for me
I wanna sqeeze you but I'm scared to death I'll break your back instead
You know your perfume, well it won't let me be
Bm F#7 Bm F#7 Bm You know the bartenders they all know my name Bm7 A7 G7 F#7* and they catch me when I'm pulling up lame Bm7 A7 G7 F#7* Bm7* E7 and I'm a pool-shooting-shimmy-shyester shaking my head Bm F#7 Bm F#7 Bm when I should be living clean in stead
so come on baby, let your love light shine
gotta bury me inside of your fire
cause your eyes are enough to blind me
you're like a-looking at the sun
you gotta whisper tell me I'm the one
come on and whisper tell me I'm the one
gotta whisper tell me I'm the one
come on and whisper tell me I'm the one
