Its been so hot in the English country side these days i got listening to this loverly
summer song and decided to Tab it.
Sunny afternoon by the kinks
Capo fifth fret
[Intro]
Am Am E7 E7 Am Am E7 E7
[Verse 1]
Am G
The tax man's taken all my dough
C G
And left me in my statley home.
E7 Am
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
G
And i can't sail my yacht,
C G
He's taken everything i've got,
E7 Am
All i've got this sunny afternoon.
[Chorus 1]
A7 D7
Save me, Save me, Save me from this squeeze,
G C E7
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.
Am D7
And i love to live so pleasantly,
Am D7 G
Live this life of luxury,
C E7 Am
Lazing on a sunny afternoon,
E7
In the summertime,
Am E7
In the summertime, In the summertime.
[Verse 2]
Am G
My girlfriends run off with my car
C G
And gone back to her ma and pa
E7 Am
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty.
G
Now i'm sitting here,
C G
Sipping on my ice cold beer,
E7 Am
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
[Chorus 2]
A7 D7
Help me, Help me, Help me sail away,
G C E7
Well, give me two good reasons why i oughta stay.
Am D7
'Cause i love to live so pleasantly
Am D7 G
Live this life of luxury,
C E7 Am
Lazing on a sunny afternoon,
E7
In the summertime,
Am E7
In the summertime, In the summertime.
[Chorus 1]
A7 D7
Save me, Save me, Save me from this squeeze,
G C E7
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.
Am D7
And i love to live so pleasantly,
Am D7 G
Live this life of luxury,
C E7 Am
Lazing on a sunny afternoon,
E7
In the summertime,
Am E7
In the summertime, In the summertime.
[Outing]
Am E7
In the summertime, In the summertime,
Then just quietly strum Am until fade (or sudden ending depending on which album you got it on)
