Long Weekend Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]She's [G]got an[D]other thing coming
If he's thinking [G]that he'll stay
He only met the girl the [D]other day
And she told him he'd find work
If he stayed with her
But no [G]work's come his way
He can't go on just living [D]for today
He's a stranger to the city, this country
He's got too [G]much to do, he's got to move,
can't spend [D]more time with you
He [Bm]thinks that his leave is [D]due,
[Bm]he k[D]nows[Bm] how long it comes throu[D]gh[Bm]
[G]Shout, she cried,
if the city [D]is dust in your eyes
[G]Phone, she pleads, if that city's no fool
[D]All those street traffic [Bm]signs
In the cafe [D]on the corner
she's sitting
Expecting [G]him to show
While in her heart she knows he [D]has to go
The other night she captured
all of his attention
But now as [G]things fly by
He turns his face from her and
[D]stares at the sky
Confession time will make her sad,
it can't help mak[G]ing [D]her blue
He [Bm]knows that his leave is [D]due
[Bm]He k[D]nows t[Bm]hat long
weekend's [D]through[Bm]
[G]Right, she says,
if you need a friend [D]along the way
[G]Come back sometime,
I've no reason to leave
[D]You know that I'll stay

[Verse 2]
Shouting, [G]she cried, in the city
Don't [D]live in your head
[G]Won't you please
If that city's too full
[D]Of those street traffic [Bm]signs
In the [D]cafe in the [D]corner
She's sitting
Expecting [G]him to show
