LAm RE
Take Sonny, he's a real go-getter
LAm RE
A regular man about town
LAm RE
He's got the world revolving around the music
SOL DO
And keeping his ear to the ground
LAm RE
He falls asleep behind his dark sunglasses
LAm RE
And whispers the words with a smile
LAm RE
D I double G, I love ya, baby
SOL DO
I ain't seen your face in awhile
LA
She ain't keeping score, he don't owe her anything
DO
But she ain't gonna sit around
RE
Waiting for the phone to ring
Chorus
SOL LA RE
Sonny Boy, don't take your toys away
DO
Save them for a rainy day, yea, yea, yea
SOL LA RE
An IOU could break her heart in two
DO
She thought you were the real McCoy, Sonny Boy
LAm RE
LAm RE
He's got his servant and his own dumbwaiter
LAm RE
To answer the phone when you call
LAm RE
Sorry, Sonny's underneath the weather
SOL DO
Try him back later next fall
LAm RE
The boss called him out to California
LAm RE
Let Hollywood make you a star
LAm RE
Now he's on the Music Television
SOL DO
And driving a Cadillac car
LA
Funny how fame and money does what it can
DO
To bring about change in the boy
RE
The clothes don't make the man
Chorus
SOL LA RE
Sonny Boy, don't take your toys away
DO
Save them for a rainy day, yea, yea, yea
SOL LA RE
An IOU could break her heart in two
DO
She thought you were the real McCoy, Sonny Boy
SI RE LA
oooh oh oh
SI MIm RE LA
It's a game you just can't win Ooooh oh oh
SI DO
Though it never will be the same again
RE
Fair-weather friend
G A D C, G A D C... Am D
LAm RE
I don't think we've heard the last of Sonny
LAm RE
He can't get it off of his mind
LAm RE
He wants to laugh, but he don't think it's funny
SOL DO
A conscience can turn on a dime
LA
When he was a boy, they taught him the Golden Rule
DO RE
Take him for anything, but don't take him for a fool
Chorus
SOL LA RE
Sonny Boy, don't take your toys away
DO
Save them for a rainy day, yea, yea, yea
SOL LA RE
An IOU could break her heart in two
DO
She thought you were the real McCoy, Sonny Boy
