“THURSDAY” by Jim Croce

[Verse 1]
INTRO:  C F C F C F G A C
 
 
        C
Well it started out just like a dream 
    F                                G
And like a dream I knew that what we had 
              C
Would have to end
                    F
I was looking for a lifetime lover, and
G                      C
You were looking for a friend
 
 
 
CHORUS 1:
Am                        Em                             F
Someone to be there after all your night time lovers had gone
              G
To where they came.
Am                      D                              G
Someone who knew the way and help to play your daytime games
 
F    N.C.         Am     G
     It's not the same
 
 
       C
Well I started out pretending that
    F                             G
I'd come to mean enough to you to make 
            C
You want to change.
                            F                                   G
Then I came to realise that there was just too much of you, you had 
       C
To rearrange
 
 
CHORUS 2:
Am                                     Em                            F
And I couldn't bear to wait around for all your night time lovers to go
              G
To where they came
            Am                         D                              G
And then it came to hurt too much to me to help to play your day time games
 
F     N.C.        Am      G
      No one's to blame
 
 
   C
It started out just like a dream 
    F                                G
And like a dream I knew that what we had 
              C
Would have to end
                    F
I was looking for a lifetime lover, and
G                      Am
You were looking for a friend
 
F                   C          Am
I was looking for a lifetime lover and
G                      C         F     C
You were looking for a friend
