    D   DM7  D   D9 D  Dsus4  A7(V)
Oh, you can kiss me on   a    Mon - day, 

G#7 A7(V)  G#7 A7(V) G#7 A7(V) Gdim  D
A   Monday, a Monday is  very  very good 

   D   DM7  D   D9 D Dsus4  A7(V)
Or you can kiss me on  a   Tuesday 

G#7 A7(V)  G#7 A7(V)  G#7 GM7  G  A7 A7/6   D
A  Tuesday, a Tuesday, in fact I wish you would 

   D   DM7  D   D9 D Dsus4  A7(V)
Or you can kiss me on  a   Wednesday, 

G#7 A7(V)  G#7 A7(V) G#7  A7(V)       Gdim    D
A Thursday, a Friday, and  Sat - ur - day is best,

     D   DM7  D   D9 D Dsus4  A7(V)
But nev - er ev - er on  a   Sunday 

G#7 A7(V)  G#7 A7(V)  G#7   GM7    G  A7  A7/6  D
A  Sunday,  a Sunday 'cause that's my day  of  rest 


Refrain:

A7   Em7 Edim  D       DM7  D  D9 D    A7
Most an - y - day      you can be my guest, 

Em7 A7   G/B A7   G  G/F#  A     A9  A      D   G   A
An - y - day you say         but my day of rest; 

A7   Em7 Edim  D       DM7  D   D9   D    A7
Just name the day      that you like the best, 

Em7 A7   G/B A7   G  G/F#  A    A9  A      D   G   D
On - ly stay a - way         on my day of rest. 


    D   DM7  D   D9 D Dsus4  A7(V)
Oh, you can kiss me on  a   cool day,

G#7 A7(V)  G#7 A7(V)   G#7  A7(V) Gdim     D
A  hot day, a wet day, which ever one you choose,

    D DM7  D   D9 D Dsus4  A7(V)
Or try to kiss me on  a   grey day, 

G#7 A7(V)   G#7 A7(V)  G#7 GM7  G A7 A7/6   D
A   May day, a pay day and see if I  re - fuse;

    D  DM7  D   D9 D Dsus4  A7(V)
And if you make it on  a   bleake day, 

G#7 A7(V)      G#7 A7(V)    G#7 A7(V)   Gdim     D
A freak day, or a week day, well you can be my guest;

    D   DM7  D    D9 D Dsus4  A7(V)
But nev - er ev - er on  a   Sunday,

G#7 A7(V)  G#7 A7(V)  G#7 GM7 G  A7   A7/6 D
A  Sunday, the one day I need a lit - tle rest.


     D  DM7  D   D9 D Dsus4  A7(V)
Oh, you can kiss me on  a   week day, 

G#7 A7(V)  G#7 A7(V)   G#7 A7(V) Gdim  D
A  week day a week day the day to be my guest
