[Intro] C F G C Am D G [Verse 1]
C       F             G   C   
Tell me how you get that shine

Am        D      G
You must polish all the time

C        F          G      C
Though I know your job is thankless

Am        D         G
They will thank you up in heaven
[Chorus]
        C        F  G  C
Oh, the sun maid

            C         F  G  C
Looking for the shade
[Verse 2]
C           F             G   C
Though they say she's not too bright

Am        D       G
She takes care of all the light

C       F        G         C
Without you it's cold and stark

Am        D       G
We would all be in the dark
[Chorus]
            C        F  G  C
Without the sun maid

          C         F  G  C
She never gets paid

               C        F  G  C
Searching for the shade

           C        F  G  C
I owe the sun maid
[Interlude] F G C Am D7 G [Verse 3]
C        F       G   C
You are so taken for granted

     Am        D     G
With each and every seed that's planted

C        F        G   C
And the earth is so demanding

Am      D            G
All the young girls are out tanning
[Chorus]
          C        F  G  C
With the sun maid

          C         F  G  C
She's such an old maid

               C        F  G  C
She never gets laid

           C        F  G  C
I owe the sun maid
[Verse 4]
C           F           G      C
Now you're tired, your day is over

Am       D       G
Now the moon is one day older
[Outro] C F G C C F G C
