Rialto/ Monday morning 5.19
Em Am D
At eight o'clock we said goodbye,
G C
that's when I left her house for mine.
F♯
She said that she'd be staying in –
B B4 B
well she had to be at work by nine.
Em Am D
So I get home and have a bath,
G C
and let an hour or two pass;
F♯
drifting in front of my TV,
B B4 B
when a film comes on that she wants to see.
Em Am D
It's Monday Morning 5:19,
G C
and I'm still wondering where she's been,
Am F♯ B
'cos every time I try to call I just get her machine.
Em Am D G C
And now it's almost 6AM , and I don't want to try again,
Am F♯ B
'cos if she's still not back then this must be the end.
Em Am D
At first I guess she's gone to get
G C
herself a pack of cigarettes,
F♯
a pint of milk, food for the cat,
B B4 B
but it's midnight now and she's still not back.
It's Monday Morning 5:19, and I'm still wondering where she's been,
'cos every time I try to call I just get her machine.
And now it's almost 6AM, and I don't want to try again,
'cos if she's still not back then heaven knows, what then, is this the end?
At half past two I picture her in the back of someone else's car –
he runs his fingers through her hair...
Oh you shouldn't let him - touch you there!
