Chords with lyrics

• Difficulty: Intermediate

C minorCm
Sunday's got a slave
F minorFm
Monday's got one too
C minorCm
Sunday's got a slave
F minorFm
Monday's got one too
  Bb majorBb
Our sufferings are countless
  Eb MajorEb       Bb majorBb   C minorCm
Our pleasures are a motley few
       Bb majorBb
Spend all day digging my grave
  Eb MajorEb   Bb majorBb    C minorCm
Now go get sunday's slave

C minorCm
Tuesday sleeps in a stable
F minorFm
Wednesday's in a chains
C minorCm
Tuesday gathers up the crumbs under the table
F minorFm
Wednesday dare not complain
  Bb majorBb
My heart has collapsed
    Eb MajorEb     Bb majorBb    C minorCm
On the tracks of a run-a-way train
   Bb majorBb
Just whisper his name
  Eb MajorEb     Bb majorBb    C minorCm
And here comes Sunday's slave

   C#C#
The hands in the stable
            C minorCm
Are willing and able to pay
    C#C#
If you feel at a loss man

Just who is the boss-man
    C minorCm    Bb majorBb     C minorCm
Ask the blood on one of its bad days
    Bb majorBb
For his nerve is to serve
    Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb   C minorCm
But the service is a fucking mockery
   Bb majorBb
He insists that he piss
    Eb MajorEb     Bb majorBb
In your fist but he still
        C minorCm
Takes the money anyway
  Bb majorBb
The masters a bastard
  Eb MajorEb     Bb majorBb    C minorCm
But don't tell sunday's slave

C minorCm
Thursday's angered the master
F minorFm
O.k. so Friday's gonna pay
C minorCm
Thursday's angered the master
F minorFm
Yeah, so Friday's gonna pay
  Bb majorBb
One night on the rack
     Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb   C minorCm
And he's back saddling up Saturday
       Bb majorBb
You can only whisper his name
  Eb MajorEb   Bb majorBb
But not on sundays
Eb MajorEb    Bb majorBb
Never on sundays
  Eb MajorEb   Bb majorBb   C minorCm
Oh not on sundays slave
