Chords with lyrics

Intro: G+G

G+G
It's Monday afternoon and I'm drinking again
   E minorEm
And I know I promised you that the Lord would be my friend
    G+G
But the Lord and I don't get along so very good
      E minorEm
He doesn't speak a word out to me
Like you promised that he would
    C majorC
And I'm telling you
 D MajorD          G+G
I wish I was a better person

G+G
When the clouds roll in and the sky promises rain
      E minorEm
You just ac cept the way she is and you don't even complain
      G+G
Though you wish that it was sunny and the sky would stay blue
       E minorEm
You don't ac cept a thing about me
And wish that I was just like you
    C majorC
But I'm telling you
 D MajorD          G+G
I wish I was a better person

C majorC        G+G
I don't want to work at it
C majorC           G+G
It should come natural ly
C majorC         G+G
It shouldn't be so difficult
     D MajorD
Should be more like honey to the bee

     G+G
Well the bee has his sting and the sky has her rain
      E minorEm
And I have all of my things that I shouldn't do over again
     G+G
But if I just say the words and I look you in the eye
     E minorEm
That I am promising you, I promise
 C majorC     D MajorD    G+G
I wish I was a better person

C majorC        G+G
I don't want to work at it
C majorC           G+G
It should come natural ly
C majorC         G+G
It shouldn't be so difficult
     D MajorD
Should be more like honey to the bee

     G+G
Well it's Monday afternoon and I'm drinking again
   E minorEm
And I know I promised you that the Lord would be my friend
    G+G
But the Lord and I don't get along so very good
      E minorEm
He doesn't speak a word out to me
Like you promised that he would
    C majorC      D MajorD
And I'm telling you
   C majorC      D MajorD
I am telling you
