But he’s (C7)plain ug ly to me,

and I won der if he’s ev er (Ab7)had a day of fun in his whole life.

We are drink ing beer at noon on Tues day in a (Ab7)bar that fac es a gi ant (Bb9)car wash.

And the (C7)good peo ple of the world are wash ing their cars on their lunch break, (Ab7)hos ing and scrub bing as best they (Bb9)can in skirts and suits.

They drive their shin y Dat suns and (Gb13)Bu icks

back to the phone com pa ny, the rec ord (Gb13)store, too.

Well, they’re noth ing like Bil ly and me.

’Cause all I wan na (C7)do is have some fun,

I got a feel ing I’m not the on ly one.

All I wan na (C7)do is have some fun,

I got a feel ing I’m not the on ly one.

All I wan na (C7)do is have some fun,

un til the (Ab7)sun comes up o ver (G7)San ta Mon i ca Bou le (C7)vard.

(C7)plain ug ly to me,

and I won der if he’s ev er (Ab7)had a day of fun in his whole life.

We are drink ing beer at noon on Tues day in a (Ab7)bar that fac es a gi ant (Bb9)car wash.

And the (C7)good peo ple of the world are wash ing their cars on their lunch break, (Ab7)hos ing and scrub bing as best they (Bb9)can in skirts and suits.

They drive their shin y Dat suns and (Gb13)Bu icks

Well, they’re noth ing like Bil ly and me.

’Cause all I wan na (C7)do is have some fun,

I got a feel ing I’m not the on ly one.

All I wan na (C7)do is have some fun,

I got a feel ing I’m not the on ly one.

All I wan na (C7)do is have some fun,

Oth er wise the bar is ours,

and the day and the night and the car wash, too.

The match es and the Buds and the clean and dirt y (Gb13)cars,

But all I wan na (C7)do is have some fun,

I’ve got a feel ing the par ty has just be gun.

All I wan na (C7)do is have some fun,

I won’t tell you that you’re the on ly one.

All I wan na (C7)do is have some fun,
