Notes:- Thanks Richard! I love this song!

thoughts? 
 
 
 
{intro} 
B5 A5 G5 F#5 E5 

B5 A5 G5 F#5 E5 
 
B5          A5        G5 
It's a sunny Sunday 
   F#5                   E5 
but we don't want to get out of bed 
B5               A5        G5 
So we unplug the telephone 
F#5                     E5 
we got better things to do instead 
B5      A5      G5 
There's no one home 
   F#5        E5   D5 
nobody with a name 
 
{chorus} 
E5              D5     E5 
We're just like animals 
           D5    C5 
just like animals 
                     G5      D5 
rolling and tumbling on and on 
E5        D5     E5 
Just like animals 
   D5     C5 
we rise and fall 
                     C5     D5 
and her loving comes on so stong 
 
{NO CHORD} 

just like animals 
 
It's a long, long Monday 

working my fingers down to the bone 

When I get a little minute 

I call her up on the telephone 

She says Hurry Home 

Please, hurry home 
 
{chorus} 
 
{Harmonica solo} 
 

E5 D5 X4 

B5 A5 G5 F#5 E5 X2 
 

Driving through the crosstown traffic 

no matter how I try, every single light 

turns to red 

So I turn up the radio 

watch her dancing inside my head 
 
{chorus} 
 
{outro} 
E5 D5 X4
