 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                         D         
 The boss called him out to 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   D        A 
 It's a game you just can't win Ooooh oh oh
            B                      C   
 Though it never will be the same 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                              D               
 He wants to laugh, but he don't 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
