         I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
                                 C                F                    C                      F
         And when it's cold outside, I've got the month of May
                          C Dm    F    G
                           I guess you say
                           C              Dm          F            G
                           What can make me feel this way?

                           Talkin' 'bout my girl

         I've got so much honey the bees envy me
         I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees
                           Well, I guess you say
                           What can make me feel this way?
                           My girl...

         I don't need no money, fortune or fame
                       D                            G             D               G

                           I  got sunshine on a cloudy day with my girl
                                                                           D   Em  A7(G)(F#)(E)...
