Intro: ED
E Monday had a sad child D Always feeling low down E Tuesday had a dream child D She's always on the go So I'm in love with Saturday's child E Every time you take her out at night(She drives me wild) G#m You want to kiss and hold her way up tight(Gonna spend my time) AB You can tell the future's looking bright(Making sure that Saturday's child is mine) E If you love a Wednesday D You live your life apart now E And if you love a Thursday D She's gonna break your heart
So I'm in love with Saturday's child E Every time you hold her close you'll see(She drives me wild) G#m You can feel the thrill that's gonna be(Gonna spend my time) AB Now the future has a guarantee(Making sure that Saturday's child is mine)
Bridge:
AB Seven days of the week made to choose from AB But only one is right for me GA I know that Saturday's got what it takes, babe GAB I can tell by the way she looks at me E Friday likes the good life D She'll take you for a ride now E And Sunday makes a good wife E She wants to be your bride D So I'm in love with Saturday's child
Chorus: E Every time you take her out at night(She drives me wild) G#m You want to kiss and hold her way up tight(Gonna spend my time) AB You can tell the future's looking bright(Making sure that Saturday's child is mine, Saturday's child)
