Dm             C
        The taxman's taken all my dough
             F              C
        And left me in my stately home
        A       G      F     E    
        Lazin' on a sunny afternoon
           Dm               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
         Dm               G7  C7
        Live this life of luxury
        F            A7        Dm    C   B  Bb
        Lazin' on a sunny afternoon
                A    G    F   E
        In the summertime

        [repeat chords]
        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
        All I've got's this sunny afternoon

        Help me, help me, help me sail away
        Or give me two good reasons why I oughta stay
        'Cause I love to live so pleasantly
        Live this life of luxury
        Lazin' on a sunny afternoon
        In the summertime

        Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze
        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 x3
