Sonny Boy

Am                 D
Take Sonny, he's a real go-getter
   Am               D
A regular man about town
Am                           D
He's got the world revolving around 
the music
    G                      C
And keeping his ear to the ground

Am                         D
He falls asleep behind his dark 
sunglasses
   Am                         D
And whispers the words with a smile
Am               D
D I double G, I love ya, baby
  G                        C
I ain't seen your face in awhile

A
She ain't keeping score, he don't 
owe her anything
C
But she ain't gonna sit around
D
Waiting for the phone to ring

Chorus:
G                 A              D
Sonny Boy, don't take your toys away
                C
Save them for a rainy day, yea, yea,
 yea
G             A                  D
An IOU could break her heart in two
                         C
She thought you were the real McCoy,
 Sonny Boy

Am   D

Am                           D
He's got his servant and his own 
dumbwaiter
Am                           D
To answer the phone when you call
Am                   D
Sorry, Sonny's underneath the 
weather
G                      C
Try him back later next fall

Am                       
The boss called him out to 
  D
California
    Am                    D
Let Hollywood make you a star
Am                    D
Now he's on the Music Television
    G                   C
And driving a Cadillac car

A
Funny how fame and money does what 
it can
C
To bring about change in the boy
D
The clothes don't make the man

Chorus:
G                 A              D
Sonny Boy, don't take your toys away
                C
Save them for a rainy day, yea, yea,
 yea
G             A                  D
An IOU could break her heart in two
                         C
She thought you were the real McCoy,
 Sonny Boy

B    D      A
    oooh oh oh
       B                   Em     
It's a game you just can't win    
       D        A
      Ooooh oh oh
           B                    
Though it never will be the same 
  C
again
 D
Fair-weather friend

G   A   D   C,  G  A  D   

C... Am   D

Am                             D
I don't think we've heard the last 
of Sonny
   Am                      D
He can't get it off of his mind
Am                            
He wants to laugh, but he don't 
  D
think it's funny
   G                       C
A conscience can turn on a dime

A
When he was a boy, they taught him 
the Golden Rule
C                           D
Take him for anything, but don't 
take him for a fool

Chorus:
G                 A              D
Sonny Boy, don't take your toys away
                C
Save them for a rainy day, yea, yea,
 yea
G             A                  D
An IOU could break her heart in two
                         C
She thought you were the real McCoy,
 Sonny Boy
