1. Monday has come around again,
Am - G D
I'm in the same old place the same old faces always watching me.
Am G
Who knows how long I'll have
to stay,
Am - G
could
be a hundred years of sweat and
tears
D
at
the rate that I get paid.
Bm F#m
Sometimes I slowly drift away
Bm F#m
from
all the dull routine that's with me every day.
Am Gm
A fantasy will come to me.
Am

2. Diamonds are what I really need,
Am - G D
think
I'll rob a store, escape the law and live in Italy.
Am
G
Lately my luck has been so
bad,
Am - G D
you
know the roulette wheel's a crooked
deal I'm losing all I had.
Bm F#m
Soon be like a man that's on
the run,
Bm F#m
and
live from day to day never needing anyone,
Am Gm
play
hide and seek throughout the week.
