[Verse 1]
G Em7 D E7
Talking to myself and feeling old;
Am7 D Am7 D
Sometimes I'd like to quit, nothing ever seems to fit;
Em7 C7M Am7 D D7 G
Hanging a - round, nothing to do but frown --
Am7 C G D7sus4
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.
[Chorus]
G Em7 D E7
What I've got they used to call the blues.
Am7 D Am7 D
Nothing is really wrong, feeling like I don't belong,
Em7 C7M Am7 D D7 G
Walking a - round, some kind of lone - ly clown --
Am7 C G D D6
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.
[Bridge]
Em7 C7M Am7 D7 G7M
Funny but it seems I always wind up here with you ?
D C7M D7sus4 D7 D6
Nice to know somebody loves me.
Em7 C7M Am7 D7 Em D Em7
Funny, but it seems that it's the only thing to do ?
C7M D7sus4 D D7sus4 D
Run and find the one who loves me.
[Chorus]
G Em7 D E7
What I feel has come and gone before;
Am7 D Am7 D
No need to talk it out, we know what it's all about;
Em7 C7M Am7 D D7 G
Hanging a - round, nothing to do but frown --
Am7 C G D D6
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.

Run and find the one who loves me.
[Chorus]
A C#m F#
What I feel has come and gone before;
Bm C#m Bm C#m
No need to talk it out, we know what it's all about;
F#m D7M D A
Hanging around, nothing to do but frown --
D D A7M D
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.
[Coda]

Hanging around, nothing to do but frown --
