RAINY DAYS AND MONDAYS -- Carpenters

TUNING: Standard

Really great way to play this lovely song, not too complicated and sounds very good.

Em7: 010000
C7M; 332000
D7sus4: xx0213
D6: xx0202
G7M:320002

G             Em7      D      E7 
Talking to myself and feeling old; 
 Am7                  D    Am7                    D 
Sometimes I'd like to quit, nothing ever seems to fit; 
 Em7            C7M   Am7         D  D7   G    
Hanging   a  -  round, nothing to do but frown -- 
Am7                    C             G   D7sus4 
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down. 
 
G                  Em7     D        E7 
What I've got they used to call the blues. 
Am7               D      Am7                    D 
Nothing is really wrong, feeling like I don't belong, 
Em7           C7M    Am7          D      D7 G     
Walking a  -  round, some kind of lone - ly clown -- 
Am7                    C             G    D   D6 
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down. 
 
Bridge: 
  Em7         C7M           Am7      D7       G7M 
Funny but it seems I always wind up here with you ? 
D       C7M           D7sus4    D7    D6 
Nice to know somebody loves  me. 
Em7           C7M                 Am7  D7       Em    D    Em7 
Funny, but it seems that it's the only thing to do ? 
        C7M              D7sus4  D   D7sus4   D 
Run and find the one who loves   me. 
 
G               Em7      D       E7 
What I feel has come and gone before; 
Am7                D    Am7                     D 
No need to talk it out, we know what it's all about; 
Em7             C7M   Am7         D  D7  G     
Hanging   a  -  round, nothing to do but frown -- 
 Am7                   C             G     D   D6 
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.
