[Verse 1]
She gets an [D]hour [Bm]for lunch but if [Am]it comes to the crunch
She can [D]stretch it if you [Bm]know what I [C]mean
She [Am]meets him at a [E]hotel where
they're not [Am]known very well
'Cause they [Bm]never [D]stay
bey[Bm]ond 2[Am]: 15
She does [Bm]her make- up [E]with care and
runs a [Am]brush through her hair
Then grabs [Bm]a cab back [A]up
[Bm]to Third Av[Am]enue
And at [Bm]a quarter to three,
[E]her friends say "Oh- my- oh-[Am] me,
Whatever [B]you just had for lunch
[E]agrees with you"

[Verse 2]
[D]Lunch hour, lunch hour,
[A]lunch hour, lunch hour
[Cdim]How do you find time to eat?[B]
[Bm]Well, there are [Cdim]so many
people on [B]the street
[Bm]All of them are [Am]hungry, [G#aug]hungry, hu[Am]ngry,
hungry, [D]hungry, [Am]hung[F]ry[C]
Lunch hour, lunch hour,
lunch hour, lunch hour
[Cdim]Gimme a sandwich to go[Dm]
Well, [D]as [Ebdim]long as I ca[Cdim]n see you,
[Am]I know
[Dm]I'll never go hu[E]ng[A]ry[C]

[Verse 3]
He takes a [D]drive every day
[E]From Brooklyn to [Am]JFK
Because he [D]meets a flight
at [Bm]noon from [Am]Montreal
And every [D]day he'll await
[Bm]Outside Air [Am]Canada's gate
'Cause she's [D]a stewardess
con[Bm]necting [D]with St. [Am]Paul
And when his [Bm]lady arrives
[E]They run for bot[Am]h of their lives
Out to [D]the Piper Cub [Bm]Motel
that [D]they call [Am]home
Then back [D]to Terminal [Bm]2
She meets her [Am]husband anew
He is the navig[F#m]ator of a[B] flight from R[E]ome

[Verse 4]
And it's [D]lunch hour, lunch hour,
[A]lunch hour, lunch hour
[Cdim]How do you find time to [B]eat?[Bm]
Well, there [Cdim]are so many
people on [B]the street
[Bm]And all of them are hung[Am]ry, hungry, hungry,
[E]hungry, [Am]hungry, [F]hun[C]gry
Lunch hour,
lunch hour, lunch hour, lunch hour
[Cdim]Gimme a sandwich to go[D]
[Dm]Well, as l[D]ong [Cdim]as I can see you, I know
[Dm]I'll never go hung[A]ry[E]

[Verse 5]
[Bm]No lunch[D], no b[Am]runch[Bm]
I'll munch [D]something [Am]on the run, dear
[Bm]East[D] side,[Bm] west [Am]side
[D]Fast rid[Bm]e, lun[Am]ch hour's begun here

[Verse 6]
I'm on a [D]diet [Bm](No lunch,
[C]no [Am]brunch)
[D]You might [Bm]try it
[Am](I'll munch something on the [Em]run,
[Am]dear) Fast food [Bm]and hot love[D]
[Bm](East side, [D]wes[Am]t
side) You can do it
Long [Bm]as you got love (Fast ride,
[Am]lunch hour's begun here)

[Verse 7]
We live on a [Bm]nine- hour day (No lunch,
no brunch)
We sleep [Am]8 hours away
(I'll munch something on [D]the run,
dear)
Work from 9 to 5 with
[Bm]60 minutes [Am]off
(East side, west side) So when
lunch [D]hour's [Bm]begun
We're really [Am]ready to run
(Fast ride, [Em]lunch hour's begun here)
[Am]It's on your [D]mark, it's down and [Bm]set,
it's [Am]off
(No lunch,
no brunch) Off to a [Bm]table for two
Off [E]to a room [Am]with a view
(I'll munch something on the run, dear)
With someone [D]new who you just
[Bm]barely [Am]know
(East side,
west side) You're really [D]up for the date
[Bm]And you don't want[Am] to be late
But still you [Bm]swear your
[B]watch is 60 minutes [E]slow

[Verse 8]
Is it [D]lunch hour, lunch hour,
[A]lunch hour, lunch hour?
[Cdim]How do you find time to eat?[Bm]
Well, there [Cdim]are so many
people on [B]the street
And [Bm]all of them are [Am]hungry, [E]hungry,
[Am]hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry
[F]Lunch hour, lunch hou[C]r,

Well, [Ebdim]as long a[Cdim]s I can see[Ebdim] you,[Cdim]
[Ebdim]I know
[Dm]I'll never go hung[Am]ry[A][E]
