Verse 1

Windows down on the ride back home
Salt still stuck in my dashboard clothes
Little bit tired, little sunburned too
Still got sand in my truck from you
Phone's dead, hair's a mess
Weekend gone but it ain't gone yet
Still hear the waves in my head somehow
Even with this highway now

Pre-Chorus

Funny how a couple days
Can stay with you this way

Chorus

Monday morning tan lines
Sun still sittin' on my skin
Weekend in the rearview
But I'm still livin' in it
Little too tired, little too gone
Wishin' somehow Sunday wasn't gone
But man, those were good times
Monday morning tan lines

Verse 2

Cooler's empty in the backseat now
Radio low, just ridin' it out
Sunrise hittin' through the glass
Makes me wanna turn right back
Everybody's goin' back to work
Back to ties and tucked-in shirts
But part of me's still out there
Salt air in my hair

Pre-Chorus

Funny how the best days leave
A little bit behind on me

Chorus

Monday morning tan lines
Sun still sittin' on my skin
Weekend in the rearview
But I'm still livin' in it
Little too tired, little too gone
Wishin' somehow Sunday wasn't gone
But man, those were good times
Monday morning tan lines

Bridge

Yeah, life starts back at eight o'clock
But part of me never left that dock
And that's alright

Final Chorus

Monday morning tan lines
Sun still sittin' on my skin
Weekend in the rearview
But I'm still carryin' it
Little too tired, little sun-kissed
Little proof that life like that exists
And man, those were good times
Monday morning tan lines

Raw note map (experimental)

This is the unfiltered pitch detection across the whole mix — vocals, bass and drums included — mapped onto a fretboard. It is not a playable arrangement and no one should try to read it as one. It is here only because it is the raw material everything else was built from.
