Sunny Afternoon

R. D. Davies / the Kinks: Face to Face (1966)

Intro:
|: Dm A :|
Dm C7
The taxman's taken all my dough,
F C7
And left me in my stately home;
A Dm
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon.
Dm C7
And I can't sail my yacht,
F C7
He's taken everything I've got;
A Dm
All I've got's this sunny afternoon.
D7 G7
Save me, save me, save me from this greed,
C7 F A7
I got a big fat mama tryin' to break me.
Dm G7
And I love to live so pleasantly,
Dm G7 C7
Live this life of luxury;
F A7 Dm
Lazin' on a sunny afternoon -
A
In the summertime.
 
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...
