[Intro]
F#m       G      A                  F#m      G
 
[Verse 1]
     A
Oh, didn't I mess around
      D
Like everybody did
E
I said, "Woman, you're foolin' around
        A
With a man that just don't fit"
 
          A
I said, "I'd better get along
          D
Before I get right under your skin"
E
Remember the song, wasn't it fun
            A
But it was just one of those things
 
 
[Chorus]
        F#m   G           A
It was al - right for an hour
       F#m   G           A
It was al - right for a day
   F#m               G                       A
It did not last, it did not last through the weekend
          F#m             G            A
And I packed my bags and moved right away
 
 
[Verse 2]
        A
I said goodbye, mama
         D
I don't owe no ali-money
   E
I paid my dues and payroll cues
       A
Gonna leave it all up to you
 
      A
I'll take my dog and my car
          D
The best friends I've found so far
     E
and I'll be gone with the mornin' sun
  A
Singin' the same old song
 
 
[Chorus]

        F#m   G           A
It was al - right for an hour
       F#m   G           A
It was al - right for a day
   F#m               G                       A
It did not last, it did not last through the weekend
          F#m             G            A
And I packed my bags and moved right away
 
 
[Interlude]
F#m - G - A  x4     (cold stop or tacit last A through drum transition to verse 3)
 
[Verse 3]
        A
Well I guess you needed somebody
         D
To open each and every door
        E
With a large amount in a Swiss account
              A
To give you thrills and nothing more
 
         A
But my Volkswagen is hardly
   D
a custom built Ferarri
    E
You want first class but I pump gas,
        A
So I'll get on out of your way
 
 
[Chorus]
        F#m   G           A
It was al - right for an hour
       F#m   G           A
It was al - right for a day
   F#m               G                       A
It did not last, it did not last through the weekend
          F#m             G            A
And I packed my bags and moved right away
 
        F#m   G           A
It was al - right for an hour
       F#m   G           A
It was al - right for a day
   F#m               G                       A
It did not last, it did not last through the weekend
          F#m             G            A
And I packed my bags and moved right away
