Tuning: standard EADGBe


          C        C7       E7
Grab your coat and get your hat,

            F             Fm7    Bb7
Leave your worries on the door - step;

Am   Am7         D7
Just direct your feet

       Dm7   G7           C     G7
To the sunny side of the street.


       C           C7     E7
Can't you hear the pitter-pat?

         F             Fm7   Bb7
And that happy tune is your  step!

Am       Am7     D7
Life can be complete

       Dm7   G7           C 
On the sunny side of the street.


**Bridge**

          C7                           F
I used to walk in the shade with those blues on parade;

    Am7     D7             G7            G9   
But I'm not afraid -- this rover crossed over!



     C     C7    E7
If I never had a cent,

       F                  Fm7   Bb7
I'd be rich as Rock - e - fel - ler,

Am        Am7   D7
Gold dust at my feet

       Dm7   G7          C
On the sunny side of the street.
