Time Of The Month

[Verse 1]
Ab
Well, every last Friday, lord, I’m cashing a check
Ab
Looking at my balance with a hankerin’ to spend
Db
Buying silly things and I’m painting the town
Ab
Eating fancy dinners and I’m Uberin’ around
Eb                          Db
Buying rounds of beer for nearly everyone
Ab                       Eb         Ab
Good lordy, mama, this time of the month

[Verse 2]
Ab
Well, by the fifteenth, lord, I’m scratching my head
Ab
Wonderin’ how my bank account is back in the red
Db
By the time I pay the bills and settle the rent
Ab
I realise I ain’t got a penny to spend (shit!)
Eb                    Db
Get my panties in a big ol’ bunch
Ab                    Eb            Ab
Good lordy, mama, this time of the month…
​
[Chorus]
     Db  Eb       Ab
This time of the month
Bb
I’m paying the price for getting too high
Db                     Eb
And having myself a damn good
Db Eb        Ab
Time of the month
B
That money would stretch with self-restraint
       Db                Eb             Ab
Oh, but I never learn, so here we go again…
​

[Verse 3]
Ab
Now I’m mine-sweeping half-drunk beers at the bar
Ab
Ignoring every light on the dash of my car
Db
Wearing shiny clothes but I’m the hiding the tags
Ab
‘Cuz come Monday morning I’ll be taking them back
Eb                     Db
Ballin’ on a budget and I’m packing a lunch
Ab                       Eb          Ab
Good lordy, mama, this time of the month, ow, ow, ow, ow!

[Chorus]
     Db  Eb       Ab
This time of the month
Bb
I’m paying the price for getting too high
Db                     Eb
And having myself a damn good
Db Eb        Ab
Time of the month
B
That money would stretch with self-restraint
       Db                Eb             Ab
Oh, but I never learn, so here we go again…
​
[Verse 4]
Ab
‘Cuz finally it’s Friday and I’m cashing a check
Ab
Looking at my balance with a hankerin’ to spend
Db
Buying silly things and I’m painting the town
Ab
Eating fancy dinners and Uberin’ around
Eb                          Db
Buying rounds of beer for nearly everyone
Ab                  Eb             Ab
Good lordy, mama, this time of the month
Ab                  Eb             Ab
Good lordy, mama, this time of the month
Ab                  Eb             Ab
Good lordy, mama, this time of the month
