The reason the other tab first tab says it sounds like it’s off by a half-step is
because it is.
"I Don’t Like Mondays" is in the key of B, not C. So, here's the bona-fide
transcription of "Mondays"
Also, you might need to widen margins to view the whole lines.
 
[Intro] N.C. (Black-key glissando on piano)
 
D# bass  |      |     |     |A/B|
D#m      |      |E    |F#   E   |
 
[Verse 1]
 
    B              D#m                E               F#
The silicon chip inside her head gets switched to overload,
    B                    D#m
And nobody's gonna go to school today, she’s gonna
E                 F#
Make them stay at home,
    E                  F#
And daddy doesn't understand it,
          B                           E
He always said she was good as gold.
           E
And he can see no reasons, cos there are no reasons,
     E                         F#     F#6    F#7
What reasons do you need to be shown?
 
 
[Hook]
 
        B                B/A#
Tell me why I don't like Mondays,
        E/G#             F#
Tell me why I don't like Mondays,
        B  [TO CODA]     B/A#
Tell me why I don't like Mondays,
        E                  F#
I wanna shoot, Oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh,
              B          D#m    E     F#  E
The whole day down.
 
 
[Verse 2]
    B                D#m
The Telex machine is kept so clean,
       E                  F#
And it types to a waiting world,
    B                                 D#m
And Mother feels so shocked, Father's world is rocked,
          E                      F#
And their thoughts turn to their own little girl.
E                        F#
Sweet sixteen ain't that peachy keen,
       B                      E
No, it ain't so neat to admit defeat,
         E
They can see no reasons Cos there are no reasons
     E              F#    F#6    F#7
What reasons do you need?
 
 
[Hook]
 
        B                B/A#
Tell me why I don't like Mondays,
        E/G#             F#
Tell me why I don't like Mondays,
        B  [TO CODA]     B/A#
Tell me why I don't like Mondays,
        E                  F#
I wanna shoot, Oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh,
              D#sus4  D#m    D#sus4   D#m          B          Bsus4
The whole day down,   down,  down,    shoot it all down...
 
 
[Instrumental break]
 
B   |D#m   |     |E    |F#    |Badd2 |     |     |
                                                   And all the
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
B                        D#m
Playing’s stopped in the playground, now.
    E                      F#
She wants to play with her toys a while.
    B                      D#m
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
        E               F#
And the lesson today is how to die.
             E                          F#sus4
And then the bullhorn crackles, and the captain tackles,
         B                E/B   B        E
With the problems and the how's and why's
           E                         E
And he can see no reasons, cos there are no reasons
     E                     F#   F#6  F#7
What reason do you need to die, die? Oooh, and

F#               B                  D#m                        E
Mondays, tell me why, I don’t like,      I don’t like (tell me why)
