Originally done with keyboards, this is a strummy guitar version. Can be played with either open or barre
Chords, sounds better (I think with barres, as it's more punchy)

Sunday morning going slow, I'm talking to the radio
A G A G
Clothes and records on the floor the memories of the night before
A G A G
Out in club-land having fun, and now I´m hiding from the sun
A G A G
Waiting for a visitor, though no-one knows I'm here for sure

Dancing, laughing, drinking, loving

And now I'm all alone, In bedsit land, my only home

I think it's time to cook a meal, to fill the emptiness I feel
A G A G
Spent my money going out, I've nothing I'm left without
A G A G
Clean my teeth and comb my hair, look for something new to wear
A G A G
Start the nightlife over again, kid myself I'm having fun

A G A G
Look out from my window view, I've really nothing else to do
A G A G
Read a book and write a letter, mother, things are getting better
A G A G
Watch the mirror count the lines, the battle scars of all the good times
A G A G
Look around and I can see, a thousand people just like me
