When The Word Was Thunderbird

Tom: Em

      Am
         Up every morning at the crack of dawn
      G
         Nights as short as the days are long
         D                                 Em
         Life turned out to be another magazine
      Am
         I'm livin' with a stranger now
      G
         The girl i knew got away somehow
         D                             Em
         She went out with two bit gasoline

         I wanna go back, you know what i mean

[Chorus]
      Am
         When the word was Thunderbird
      G
         And the price was forty twice
      D                                  Em
         Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun

[Verse 2]
      Am
         Ah,but love turned out to be a passin' thing
      G
         Different bird of a different wing
         D                                  Em
         Some damn fool put a dollar twenty nine

         On a jug of Thunderbird wine
             Am
         And Lord i don't know if i'm gonna make it
         G
         I Don't know if i'll have the strength to take it
         D                             Em
         Everything's hung up in yesterday

[Verse 3]
      Am
         Married to a civic-minded social girl
         G
         Takin' shortcuts in a woman's world
         D                                    Em
         She won't let her hair down when i'm home
          Am
         Society's just slavery
             G
         And security is killing me
         D                                     Em
         I work hard for it, but i give it all away

         If i could go back to yesterday

[Chorus]
             Am
         Now when the word was Thunderbird
      G
         And the price was forty twice
      D                                  Em
         Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun
