D5
Well it didn't feel like Sunday
D5
Didn't feel like June
D5/G
When he met his silent partner
D5/G D5
In that lonely corner room
F5 D5
That overlooked the marquee
F5 D5
Of the plaza all-a - dult
A7/E
And he was not lookin' for romance
G9 G9/F D5
Just someone he could trust
F5 D5
And it wasn't no way to carry on
F5 D5
It wasn't no way to live
A7/E
But he could put up with it for a little while
G9 G9/F D5
He was workin' on some - thing big
D5
Speedball rang the night clerk
D5
Said, " Send me up a drink"
D5/G
Now the night clerk said, "It's Sunday man
D5/G D5
Wait a minute, let me think"
F5 D5
"There' a little place out - side of town
F5 D5
Might still have some wine"
A7/E
Speedball said, "Forget it
G9 G9/F D5
Can I have an outside line?"
F5 D5
And it wasn't no way to carry on
F5 D5
It wasn't no way to live
A7/E
But he could put up with it for a little while
G9 G9/F D5
He was workin' on some - thing big
D5
It was Monday when the day maids
D5
Found the still made bed
D5/G
All except the pillows
D5
That lay stacked up at the head
F5 D5
And one said, "I know I've seen his face,
F5 D5
I wonder who he is"
A7/E
And the other said, "Probably it's just another clown
G9 G9/F D5
Workin' on some - thing big"
F5 D5
And it wasn't no way to carry on
F5 D5
It wasn't no way to live
A7/E
But he could put up with it for a little while
G9 G9/F D5
He was workin' on some - thing big
F5 D5
And it wasn't no way to carry on
F5 D5
It wasn't no way to live
A7/E
But he could put up with it for a little while
