Kinks, Sunny Afternoon (1966)
^{Key: :[A#m] (w: Ray Davies)}

INTRO: [/A#/G#/G/Gb/F/D#/C#/C] : [x2]

VERSE 1:
The [A#m] taxman's taken [G#] all my dough
and [C#] left me in my [G#7] stately home
[F7] lazing on a sunny after-[A#m]-noon
and I can't [G#] sail my yacht
he's [C#] taken every-[G#7]-thing I've got
[F7] all I've got's this sunny after-[A#m]-noon

CHORUS 1:
[A#7] Save me, save me, save me from this [D#7] squeeze
I've got a [G#7] big fat mama tryin' to break [C#] me [F7]
And I [A#m] love to live so [D#7] pleasantly
[A#m] Live this life of [D#7] luxu-[G#7]-ry
[C#] Lazing on a [F7] sunny after-[INTRO]-noon
In the summertime, in the summertime, in the summertime

VERSE 2:
My [A#m] girlfriend's run off [G#] with my car
And [C#] gone back to her [G#7] ma and pa
[F7] Tellin' tales of drunkenness and [A#m] cruelty
Now I'm [G#] sittin' here, [C#] sippin' at my [G#7] ice-cooled beer
[F7] Lazin' on a sunny after-[A#m]-noon

CHORUS 2:
[A#7] Help me, help me, help me sail [D#7] away
Or give me [G#7] two good reasons why I ought a [C#] stay [F7]
Cause I [A#m] love to live so [D#7] pleasantly
[A#m] Live this life of [D#7] luxu-[G#7]-ry
[C#] Lazing on a [F7] sunny after-[INTRO]-noon
In the summertime, in the summertime, in the summertime

REPEAT CHORUS 1:
