Biography:
William Owsley III (March 6, 1966-April 30, 2010), better known by the stage name Owsley, was a power pop singer-songwriter from Anniston, Alabama. Owsley released two albums - "Owsley" (1999) and "The Hard Way" (2004) before his death in 2010.
He was also the lead singer for the power pop group The Semantics and was the guitarist for Amy Grant's band from 1994 to 2010.
It seems like such a phony platitude that doing things the hard way is the most rewarding.

Am D
Take Sonny, he's a real go-getter
Am D
A regular man about town
Am D
He's got the world revolving around the music
G C
And keeping his ear to the ground
Am D
He falls asleep behind his dark sunglasses
Am D
And whispers the words with a smile
Am D
D I double G, I love ya, baby
G C
I ain't seen your face in awhile
A
She ain't keeping score, he don't owe her anything
C
But she ain't gonna sit around
D
Waiting for the phone to ring
Chorus:
G A D
Sonny Boy, don't take your toys away
C
Save them for a rainy day, yea, yea, yea
G A D
An IOU could break her heart in two
C
She thought you were the real McCoy, Sonny Boy
Am D
Am D
He's got his servant and his own dumbwaiter
Am D
To answer the phone when you call
Am D
Sorry, Sonny's underneath the weather
G C
Try him back later next fall
Am D
The boss called him out to California
Am D
Let Hollywood make you a star
Am D
Now he's on the Music Television
G C
And driving a Cadillac car
A
Funny how fame and money does what it can
C
To bring about change in the boy
D
The clothes don't make the man
Chorus:
G A D
Sonny Boy, don't take your toys away
C
Save them for a rainy day, yea, yea, yea
G A D
An IOU could break her heart in two
C
She thought you were the real McCoy, Sonny Boy
B D A
oooh oh oh
B Em D A
It's a game you just can't win Ooooh oh oh
B C
Though it never will be the same again

Fair-weather friend
G A D C, G A D C... Am D
Am D
I don't think we've heard the last of Sonny
Am D
He can't get it off of his mind
Am D
He wants to laugh, but he don't think it's funny
G C
A conscience can turn on a dime
A
When he was a boy, they taught him the Golden Rule
C D
Take him for anything, but don't take him for a fool
Chorus:
G A D
Sonny Boy, don't take your toys away
C
Save them for a rainy day, yea, yea, yea
G A D
An IOU could break her heart in two
C
She thought you were the real McCoy, Sonny Boy
