Except For Mondays     Lorrie Morgan
G                                            D
You look surprised.  You didn't think you'd see me
                                       G
Kicking up my heels, paintin' up this town
                                           D
When you said goodbye, I learned a couple new dances
                   Em                         D
Cast a couple of glances.  I'm on a big roll now.

CHORUS:
G
Except for Monday which was never good anyway
C
Tuesday I get a little sideways
G                                  D
Wednesday, I feel better just for spite
G
Thursday and Friday take too long.  
       C           
Before I know it Saturday's gone
       G                          D              G
(But) it's Sunday now and you can bet that I'm alright

Lead
G                                           D
Don't get me wrong, It wasn't always this easy
                                       G
Getting over you got a little rough on me.
                                         D
It didn't take too long till I got it together
                Em             F#m              D
And everyday I thank my lucky stars you set me free.
