  G		    F		  	   A
Friday's child is planning to out for the first time
 C#m	    F#m	    G
Don't worry mum, I won't be out that late
G	  	        F			       A
Can't be playing those passive games right now they're out of date

You're awfully sweet, haven't got the time

Growing up so fast, got better things to do.

Chorus:
G	 D	      Em	                Bm
You can get what you want, you're so young and lovely
    C         A
Oh oh, la la la
G	 D	      Em		        Bm
You can get what you want, you're so young and lovely
    C         A
Oh oh, la la la

Kicking around in the centre of the town, looking in shop windows
Those mannequins look far too real at night
Friday's child doesn't know if it's awake or if it's dreaming
Says, "Don't worry, Dad
I'll do my bit, I'll raise the flag, I'll be just like you"

Chorus - x2

       G		     A		
Don't worry mum, I'm not that dumb,
B
I'll be just like you...

Chorus - x2

G  D   Em    	   Bm         C	        A
Oh oh why, why you do it? oh oh, la la la - x4
