Underneath the pale blue sky

Chorus:
DmDm  G+G       C majorC   A7A7
Just sitting in the midday sun
DmDm  G+G       C majorC     A7A7
Just soaking up that currant bun

With no particular purpose or reason

Sitting in the midday sun

They all tell me get a job you slob
  DmDm     G+G  C majorC        A7A7
I'd rather be a hobo walking round with nothing

Than a rich man scared of losing all he's got

So I'm just sitting in the midday sun
DmDm  G+G       C majorC     A7A7
Just soaking up that currant bun
DmDm      G+G    C majorC      A7A7
Why should I have to give my reasons
  DmDm       G+G    C majorC   C7C7
For sitting in the midday sun

A augmentedA mortgage, overdraft, a bank loan

Sitting in the midday sun

But who needs a job when it's sunny. Wah Wah
