Dm  C  Bb   A   G  F  E  2x



    Dm             C

The taxman's taken all my dough

    F             C

And left me in my stately home

A      G    F     E    Dm

Lazin' on a sunny afternoon



            C

And I can't sail my yacht

     F          C

He's taken everything I've got

A        G          F     E    Dm

All I've got's this sunny afternoon



D7                                  G7

Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze

        C7                           F  A7

I got a big fat mama tryin' to break me

      Dm              G7

And I love to live so pleasantly

D7                G7  C7

Live this life of luxury

F           A7         Dm  C Bb A

Lazin' on a sunny afternoon

       Dm    A    F  E 

In the summertime



   Dm                   C

My girlfriend's run off with my car

    F                C

And gone back to her ma and pa

A       G        F      E        Dm

Tellin' tales of drunkenness and cruelty



        C

Now I'm sittin' here

F             C

Sippin' at my ice-cooled beer

A        G          F     E    Dm

All I've got's this sunny afternoon



D7                              G7

Help me, help me, help me sail away

           C7                            F  A7

Or give me two good reasons why I oughta stay

         Dm              G7

'Cause I love to live so pleasantly

D7                G7  C7

Live this life of luxury

F           A7         Dm  C Bb A

Lazin' on a sunny afternoon



       Dm    A   F E

In the summertime



Dm  C  Bb   A   G  F  E   Dm
