5  -5   6    -5   5    -4 
We can call Mrs. John-son 

-4  -4   5   -5  5  -4  5  3  
To keep the kids a day or two 

 5    -5  6   6   -5   5   5  -4  -4 
Take the ear-ly flight to Flo-ri-da  

 -4   5  -5  5   -4  -3  6 
Just the way we used to do 

 5    -5    6  6  -5  5 5   5    -4  
Have room service bring us breakfast 

 -4   5   -5     -4    5   3  
Make love all through the day 

5   5    -5   6   6   -5  5   5  -4  
If we’re not back in love by Mon-day 

-4  5  -5  5   -4  -3  4    
We can go our sep’rate ways 

Chorus

4    5    6   7   7   -8  7   7   -6 6 -5 
If we’re not back in love by Mon-day      

-6  7    7   7   -6 -5  6 -5 5 
We can’t say we did-n’t try    

 5   -5  6    6  -5 5 5 -4   4   
Just be-fore we bur-y our   love 

 -4    5    -5    5    -4 -3  6  
Let’s make sure we’ve let it die 

  5   6  7    7     -8   7    7  -6 
Sleep a few  more nights to-geth-er 

-6   7     7   7   -6  -5  6 -5 5 
Say the things we used to say     

5   5    -5   6   6  -5 5 5   5   -4 
If we’re not back in love by Mon-day 

-4  5  -5  5   -4   -3    4   
We can go our sep-’rate ways  

Second verse

5   -5     6    6   -5 5  5 -4 
We could find that little café 

-4   5     -5 5  -4  5    3   
With that funny sounding name 

5   -5  6   6  -5  5   5  -4  -4 
Get the ta-ble by the win-dow    

  5  -4  5  -5  5   -4  -3  6   
I’ll say I love you once a-gain 

5   -5  6  6   -5  5 5    5    -4    
If the vi-’lin play-er’s still there 

 -4    -4   5   -5  5   -4    5   3 
We’ll dance un-til the break of day 

5   5    -5   6   6   -5  5   5  -4  
If we’re not back in love by Mon-day 

-4  5  -5  5   -4  -3  4    
We can go our sep’rate ways
