In The Summer Time Chords

(ver. 1)
Mungo Jerry
This might not be the right chords, but it sounds hell of a lot better than the other one.

Intro:  
| G – G | G – G | C – C | G – G | D – C | G – G | 

      G 
In the summertime when the weather is hot,
                              
you can stretch right up and touch the sky,
        C                                                      G 
when the weather is fine, you got women, you got women on your mind.        
       D                                              
Have a drink, have a drive, 
C                           G 
go out and see what you can find.


      G 
If her daddy's rich, take her out for a meal,
                           
if her daddy's poor, just do as you feel.
        C                                          G 
Speed along the lane, do a ton or a ton and twenty-five.
         D                        
When the sun goes down,   
        C                            G 
you can make it make it good in a lay-by.


              G 
We're not grey people, we're not dirty, we're not mean,
                             
we love everybody but we do as we please.
         C                                                    G 
When the weather is fine, we go fishing or go swimming in the sea.      
              D     
We're always happy,
           C                                 G
life's for living, yeah, that's our philosophy.


      G 
Sing along with us, da da di di di 
                       
Da da da da yeah we’re happy 
      C                           G
Da da da da, di di di di di da da da 
         D
Da da da da , 
       C                         G 
da da da da da da da da da da da da 



            G 
When the winter's here, yeah, it's party-time, 
                                                       
bring a bottle, wear your bright clothes, it'll soon be summertime.
          C                                                  G 
And we'll sing again, we'll go driving or maybe we'll settle down.    
         D                              
If she's rich if she's nice, 
           C                              G 
bring your friend and we will all go into town.



Repeat Verse 1, 2, 3 and then the diddles until fade out.
