I Don't Like Mondays The Boomtown Rats
Subject: CRD: I don't like mondays by the boomtown rats
All right, I have tried to find out the chords to I don't like mondays
by the Boomtown Rats. I do not claim these are the right ones, but they
come pretty close (I put the chords in the song by listening to the
tape, so there might be one or two wrong ones). The only thing is that
in the original song, it seems that all is tuned 3/4 notes lower, but
I've searched for not-to-difficult-to-play chords.
I got the text from listening to the tape, so there also might be some
slight mistakes in it.
I DON'T LIKE MONDAYS - THE BOOMTOWN RATS
----------------------------------------
The [C]silicon chip in[G]side her head
Gets [F]switched to over[G]load
And [C]nobody's gonna go to [G]school today,
She's gonna [F]make them stay at [G]home,
And [Am]daddy doesn't under[G]stand it,
He always [C]said she was good as [F]gold,
And he can [F]see no reasons
Cos there [F]are no reasons
What [F]reason do you need to be [G]shown
Tell me [C]why I don't like [G]mondays,
Tell me [F]why I don't like [G]mondays,
Tell me [C]why I don't like [G]mondays,
I wanna [F]shoo-oo-oo-oo - oo - [G]oot
NC C
The whole day down.
The [C]Telex machine is [G]kept so clean
And it [F]types to a waiting [G]world,
And [C]Mother feels so shocked
Father's [G]world is rocked,
And their [F]thoughts turn to
Their [G]own little girl.
[Am]Sweet sixteen ain't that [G]peachy keen,
No, it [C]ain't so neat to ad[F]mit defeat,
They can [F]see no reasons
Cos there [F]are no reasons
What [F]reasons do you [G]need
Tell me [C]why I don't like [G]mondays
Tell me [F]why I don't like [G]mondays
Tell me [C]why I don't like [G]mondays
I wanna [F]shoo-oo-oo-oo - oo - [G]oot
NC Am F
The whole day down, down, down, shoot it all down...
And all the [C]playing's stopped in the [G]playground now
She [F]wants to play with her [G]toys a while,
And [C]school's out early and [G]soon we'll be learning
And the [F]lesson today is [G]how to die.
And then the [Am]bullhorn crackles,
And the [G]captain tackles,
With the [C]problems and the how's and [F]why's
And he can [F]see no reasons
Cos there [F]are no reasons
what [F]reason do you need to [G]die
Tell me [C]why I don't like [G]mondays
Tell me [F]why I don't like [G]mondays
Tell me [C]why I don't like [G]mondays
I wanna [F]shoo-oo-oo-oo - oo - [G]oot
NC C
The whole day down.
Since the original is played on piano, chances are that you won't like
it as much on guitar, but I think it sounds reasonably well.
