    it`s just another rainy Sunday afternoon.

           Am                               Em                                                            

    I`m wasting my time, I got nothing to do,

            Am                              Em

    I`m hanging around, I`m a-waitin` for you,

          Dm                            Em           Am         Em-G-Am

   but nothing ever happens   -   and I wonder.

 

            Am               Em

            Am                          Em

    I`m driving too fast, I`m driving too far.

yesterday you told me `bout the blue, blue sky,

and all that I can see is just a yellow lemon tree.

I`m turning my head up and down,

       Am                                             Em

I`m turning, turning, turning, turning, turning around,

          Am                 Em

    I`d like to go out, taking a shower.

            Am                              Em                       

    But there`s a heavy cloud inside my head,

       Am                         Em

    I feel so tired, put myself into bed,

                Dm                            Em           Am       Em-G-Am

    where nothing ever happens    -   and I wonder.

 

E                  Am

     Am                             Em

    baby, anyhow I`ll get another toy,

    and everything will happen    -    and you`ll wonder.
