  			Em                                D  
Tomorrow is the one day I would change for a Monday  
      C                            G  
with freezing rains melting and no trains running  
     F                   Em  
and sad eyes passing in windows flimsy and  
   Bm                D  
my seat rocking from legs not quite matching  
    C                           D  
Got passport, credit cards, a plane that I'm catching  
        C               D          Em  
Black Sunday falls one day too soon  
 
      Em                       D  
The taxi that takes me will be moving too quickly  
    C                    G  
My suitcases simply too full for the closing  
      F                          Em  
of pants, shirts and kisses all packed in a hurry  
      Bm                       D  
Two best-selling paper backs chosen at random ---  
      C                      D  
no sign of sales-persons to whom I might hand them  
         C              D          Em  
Black Sunday falls one day too soon
