Sunny Jim, I knew him as a boy way back when

Sunny Jim, He's no older now than he was then
Em
Still flies kites on windy days
A                  B
Climbs the tallest trees
G                      A              B
A rolling scruffelin' dirty boy with patches... on his knees
Em                          A
How do you get that way... Sunny Jim

D          G              A                D
Sunny Jim, Whistling up a tune that I once knew
D          G                                A             D
Sunny Jim, Whoa... I must have kicked that can a mile or two
Em                 A             B            B
How is that I got old and you stayed all the same
Em                      A      F#m             B
Have you been around so long, living just your game
Em                                A
How do you stay that way... Sunny Jim

Sunny Jim, Awe.... Will you share your secret with me now?
D          G                    A              D
Sunny Jim, I'll be leaving in a while, tell me how
Em                        A               F#m            B
He just smiled a crooked smile at me and this is all he said,
Em                          A              F#m            B
He said, "I've been born a million times but I am never dead"
Em                          A
How do you stay that way... Sunny Jim
