Seven Days - Sting from the album "Ten Summoner's Tales"
Transcription by Luis Ferreira
{ If you want to give that cool sound of the beginning of the song, just }
{ pull the A string alone and then the , and strings simultaneously, }
{ and immediatly muting them with your palm, or whatever. But if you want }
{ to Do this, I guess it all sounds better with barre (whatever) chords, }

"Seven days" was all she wrote
A kind of ultimatum note
She gave to me, she gave to me
When I thought the field had cleared
It seems another suit appeared
To challenge me, woe is me
Though I hate to make a choice
My options are decreasing mostly rapidly
Well we'll see
I don't think she'd bluff this time
I really have to make her mine
It's plain to see
It's him or me
Cmaj7/Cm
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday
F7/Gm
If I make up my mind
F7/Gm
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind
-5/nr -5/nr
Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
But Sunday'd be too late
The fact he's over six feet ten
Might instill fear in other men
But not in me, The Mighty Flea (flee?)
Ask if I mouse or man
The mirror squeaked, away I ran
He'll murder me in time for his tea
Does it bother me at all
My rival is Neanderthal it makes me think
Perhaps I need a drink
IQ is no problem here
We won't be playing scrabble for her hand I fear
I need that beer
Cmaj7/Cm
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday
F7/Gm
If I make up my mind
F7/Gm
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind
-5/nr -5/nr
Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
But Sunday'd be too late
Seven days will quickly Go
The fact remains, I love her so
Seven days, so many ways
But I can't run away
Cmaj7/Cm
Monday, I could wait till Tuesday
F7/Gm
If I make up my mind
F7/Gm
Wednesday would be fine, Thursday's on my mind
-5/nr -5/nr
Friday give me time, Saturday could wait
But Sunday'd be too late
Do I have to tell a story
Of a thousand rainy days since we first met
It's a big enough umbrella
But it's always me that ends up getting wet
x32000 , but I think x35453 sounds better
x68886
x13331
320003 , or 355433
133211
xx3213 , but xx3011 will Do the job :)
022100
xx3210
Cmaj7/Cm xx4210 (just add your pinky to the previous chord)
F7/Gm 420100
x02210
-5/nr x12310 (/nr stands for NOROOT)
133111
x32010
I'm sure there is a better name for that -5/nr chord,
but who cares, anyway? Bah!
