ALRIGHT FOR AN HOUR – ROD STEWART F#m – G - A

[Intro]
F#m G A F#m G

[Verse 1]
A
Oh, didn't I mess around
D
Like everybody did
E
I said, "Woman, you're foolin' around
A
With a man that just don't fit"

A
I said, "I'd better get along
D
Before I get right under your skin"
E
Remember the song, wasn't it fun
A
But it was just one of those things

[Chorus]
F#m G A
It was al - right for an hour
F#m G A
It was al - right for a day
F#m G A
It did not last, it did not last through the weekend
F#m G A
And I packed my bags and moved right away

[Verse 2]
A
I said goodbye, mama
D
I don't owe no ali-money
E
I paid my dues and payroll cues
A
Gonna leave it all up to you

A
I'll take my dog and my car
D
The best friends I've found so far
E
and I'll be gone with the mornin' sun
A
Singin' the same old song

[Chorus]
F#m G A
It was al - right for an hour
F#m G A
It was al - right for a day
F#m G A
It did not last, it did not last through the weekend
F#m G A
And I packed my bags and moved right away

[Interlude]
F#m – G – A x4 (cold stop or tacit last A through drum transition to verse 3)

[Verse 3]
A
Well I guess you needed somebody
D
To open each and every door
E
With a large amount in a Swiss account
A
To give you thrills and nothing more

A
But my Volkswagen is hardly
D
a custom built Ferarri
E
You want first class but I pump gas,
A
So I'll get on out of your way

[Chorus]
F#m G A
It was al - right for an hour
F#m G A
It was al - right for a day
F#m G A
It did not last, it did not last through the weekend
F#m G A
And I packed my bags and moved right away

F#m G A
It was al - right for an hour
F#m G A
It was al - right for a day
F#m G A
It did not last, it did not last through the weekend
F#m G A
And I packed my bags and moved right away
