Maybe you’ll tarry for a while

F/// C/// G///

It’s just a test, a game for us to play

Win or lose, it’s hard to smile

Resist, resist, it’s from yourself you have to hide Backing (Oooh Ooooh la la la, etc)

Come up and see me make me smile

There ain’t no more, you’ve taken everything

I’ve been having a sweet dream

Am/// D7///

I’ve been dreaming since I woke up today

G/// E7///

It starred me and my sweet thing

Am/// D7///

Cause she’s the one makes me feel this way

C/ A7/ G/ E7/

And even if time is passing me by a lot

C/ A7/ G/ E7/

I couldn’t care less about the dues you say I got

C/ A7/ G/ E7/

Tomorrow I’ll pay the dues for dropping my love

A7/// D7///

A pie in the face for being a sleepin’ bull dog

Whistle

C/ A7/ G/ E7/

And you can be sure that if you’re feeling right

C/ A7/ G/ E7/

A daydream will last along into the night

C/ A7/ G/ E7/

Tomorrow at breakfast you may prick up your ears

A7/// D7///

Or you may be daydreaming for a thousand years

G/// E7///

What a day for a daydream

Am/// D7///

Custom made for a daydreaming boy

G/// E7///

And I’m lost in a daydream

Am/// D7///

Dreaming ‘bout my bundle of joy

Whistle

YAKETY YAK

G/// G///

Take out the papers and the trash

G/// G/// C/// C///

Or you don't get no spendin' cash

C/// C/// D/// D/// D...

If you don't scrub that kitchen floor

G///

You ain't gonna rock and roll no more

G...

Yakety yak (don't talk back)

G/// G///

Just finish cleanin' up your room

G/// G/// C/// C///

Let's see that dust fly with that broom

C/// C/// D/// D/// D...

Get all that garbage out of sight

G///

Or you don't go out Friday night

G...

Yakety yak (Don't talk back)

G/// G///

You just put on your coat and hat

G/// G/// C/// C///

And walk yourself to the laundromat

C/// C/// D/// D/// D...

And when you finish doin' that

G///

Bring in the dog and put out the cat

G...

You ain't got time to take a ride
