        D5                                            
Well it    didn't feel like Sunday 
D5                                                    
   Didn't feel like June 
        D5/G                                            
When he       met his silent partner 
        D5/G                D5                              
In that       lonely corner     room 


     F5                 D5                                
That     overlooked the     marquee 
       F5                D5                               
Of the     plaza all-a -     dult 
       A7/E                                             
And he       was not lookin' for romance 
     Gadd9          G9/F           D5        D5                       
Just        someone       he could     trust  
       F5                    D5                            
And it     wasn't no way to     carry on 
   F5                   D5                                
It     wasn't no way to     live 
              A7/E                                       
But he could        put up with it for a little while 
        Gadd9                   Gadd9/F        D5                     
He was        workin' on some -          thing     big

D5                                                    
   Speedball rang the night clerk 
        D5                                             
Said, "    Send me up a drink" 
         D5/G                                            
Now the       night clerk said, "It's Sunday man 
D5/G                        D5                              
      Wait a minute, let me     think" 


           F5                    D5                       
"There' a     little place out -     side of town 
F5                       D5                               
   Might still have some     wine" 
A7/E                                                    
     Speedball said, "Forget it  
      Gadd9          Gadd9/F           D5                             
Can I        have an           outside     line?" 
        F5                   D5                            
And it     wasn't no way to     carry on 
   F5                   D5                                
It     wasn't no way to     live 
              A7/E                                       
But he could        put up with it for a little while 
       Gadd9                    Gadd9/F        D5                     
He was        workin' on some -          thing     big

       D5                                             
It was     Monday when the day maids 
D5                                                    
    Found the still made bed 
D5/G                                                    
      All except the pillows 
         D5                    D5                         
That lay     stacked up at the     head 


    F5                         D5                         
And     one said, "I know I've     seen his face,  
  F5                D5                                    
I     wonder who he     is" 
        A7/E                                            
And the       other said, "Probably it's just another clown 
Gadd9                     Gadd9/F         D5                           
       Workin' on some -           thing     big" 
       F5                   D5                            
And it     wasn't no way to     carry on 
   F5                   D5                                
It     wasn't no way to     live 
             A7/E
