This is the chord sheet for the rhythm guitar. I realize there's a massively
intricate tab necessary for the lead guitar, but for right now, this is all
I've got. They're pretty basic chords, so just strum them all fully and
listen to the song for the pattern. Comment for any questions or corrections!

It was Monday night, under the street lights

Out on the fairgrounds, walking in monotone

Out on the road alone, in a house that's half a home

They give her pills to kill when she feels alone

I’m working late again slaving to make the rent

I write a song with a prayer as I slide the cup
