Dm                                        F
Woke up with the shakes on the bathroom floor
                                              Dm
The sun is shining, I felt like drinking some more
                                       F
Sunday's takeaway welded on my Elvis tray
                                     Dm
It's a pound a can in the garden all day
                                           F
Start at noon, keep on going through 'til two
                                          Dm
Dabbing speed like a monkey in a fucking zoo
Get your girl in the bathroom,
                    F
after flirting all day
                                           Dm
It's the time of your life on bank-holiday Monday

        C
Street fighting
     A#
Yet some day
         C
You get out

Chorus:
             Dm
Out of those Mondays
     C
Yes some say
              A#
They were the best days
            C
Out of our minds
                         D C D
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

It's 8 o'clock time to catch the next bus to town
When the drink is in, the wit is most definitely out
Late bars, fight starts, between my brother and I
Get kicked out so we hold tight and take it outside

Dodging cars, new scars, fighting out on the road
Knees me in the chest my head and arse hits
the floor
Swallowed tongue, what we done,
someone's hand in my mouth
Got to pull it back out on a Bank Holiday Monday

Street Fighting
Yet some day
You get out

Chorus

Dm                                             A/C#
I want to stick him real hard with a kitchen knife
                                               C
But we share the same bed in my mam's house tonight
I wait, I wait, I wait,
                               G/B
I wait, until he walks up the lane
                                              Dm
It's all the fun of the fair on bank-holiday Monday

Street Fighting
Yet some day
You get out

Chorus
