A (x02220@1)     D (xx0232@1)       G (320003@1)          DCome (xx0232@1)on sunshine, what can you show me

                   Em (022000@1)                    F#m (244222@1)          Em (022000@1)    DI (xx0232@1)saw the milkman, I saw the business man, I saw the only road in sight

                   Em (022000@1)                      F#m (244222@1)     Em (022000@1)        DSo (xx0232@1)many times now, oh lord I can t remember, if its September or July

                       Em (022000@1)                      F#m (244222@1)                       Em (022000@1)   DIt (xx0232@1)s in the sun above, it's in the one you love, you ll never know the reason why
