E                G      A
Wake up! It's a Monday morning
E                G       A
No time left to say goodbye.
E                      G           A
Can't breathe and the lights are changing.

Chorus:
Cmaj7             Esus4
You can live your own life
Bm         C  D
Making it happen
Cmaj7           Esus4
Working on your own time
Bm             C   D
Laid back and laughin'
Cmaj7
Oh no, oh no.

Headlights make it home by sundown
Feeling that the day is through
Return back to where you come from

Chorus:
You can live your own life
Making it happen
Working on your own time
Laid back and laughin'
Oh no, oh no

You wake up in the mornin'
And the sun is comin' up
Its been up for hours and hours and hours
And hours and hours and hours
It's been up for hours and hours and hours
And you light up the stove
And the coffee cup its hot
And the orange juice is cold, cold, cold
Monday morning
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
It's time to go
Time to go to work

Chorus:
You can live your own life
Making it happen
Working on your own time
Laid back and laughing
Oh no, oh no

No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no (Sing with us!)
No, no, no (Come on!)
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no (Sing!)
No, no, no
No, no, no (No, no, no)
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
Negative, negative
Negative, negative
No, no, no
No, no, no
