| The | taxman's taken | all my dough And | left me in my | stately home, |
| A | A/G | A/F | A/E | Dm | |
| Lazin' | on a | sunny | after | noon. |
| Dm | C7 | F | C7 | |
| And I can't | sail my yacht, He's | taken every | thing I've got, |
| A | A/G | A/F | A/E | Dm | |
| All I've | got's this | sunny | after | noon. |

| Lazin' on a | sunny after | noon | - In the | summer | time. |
| My girlfriend's run off with my car And gone back to her ma and pa, |
| Tellin' tales of drunkenness and cruelty. |
| Now I'm sittin' here, Sippin' at my ice-cooled beer; |
| Lazing on a sunny afternoon. |
| Help me, help me, help me sail away. Who give me two good reasons why I are to stay? |
| 'Cause I love to live so pleasantly - Live this life of luxury; |
| Lazin' on a sunny afternoon - In the summertime. |
| In the summertime |
| Save me, save me, save me from this greed, I got a big fat mama tryin' to break me. |
| And I love to live so pleasantly - Live this life of luxury; |
| Lazin' on a sunny afternoon - In the summertime. |
| In the summertime... |
