            C5
Was a sunny day
                  G5
Not a cloud was in the sky
                D5
Not a negative word was heard
                   E5
>From the people passing by----
      G5     C5
Was a sunny day
                  G5
All the birdies in the trees
                   D5
And the radio's singing song
                     G5
All the favorite melodies.


           A5       D5        
He was a navy man
                G5      E5
Stationed in Newport News
              A5
She was a high school queen
        D5             C5            G5
With nothing really left to lose
E5             A5
She was a high school queen
        D5             C5            G5
With nothing really left to lose

CHORUS
               A5     D5
Her name was Lorelei
             G5       E5
She was his only girl
                 A5
She called him Speedoo
            D5
But his Christian name
      C5         G5
Was Mister Earl
E5                A5
She called him Speedoo
            D5
But his Christian name
      C5         G5
Was Mister Earl

CHORUS
            C5
Was a sunny day
                  G5
Not a cloud was in the sky
                D5
Not a negative word was heard
                        G5
>From the people passing by.
