The Kinks – Art Lover (Guitar)

F           C                      Dm
Sunday afternoon there's something special

          Bb           C       Bb   C
It's just like another world

F              C          Dm
Jogging in the park is my excuse

           Bb             C        Bb   C
To look at all the little girls

Bb      C
I'm not   a flasher in a rain coat

Bb         C
I'm not a dirty old man

Bb              Bb                  C
I'm not gonna snatch you from your mother

C             
I'm an art lover

C        F    C    Dm   Bb
Come to daddy

C
And I'll give you some candy, Come on,

C         F    C   Dm  Bb    C
Come to daddy

Bb                 C
Pretty little legs, I want to draw them

Bb                 C
Like a Degas ballerina

Bb              C
Pure white skin, like porcelain

        Bb
She's a work of art and I should know

Bb          C
I'm an art lover

C        F    C   Dm  Bb
Come to daddy

C
And I'll give you some spangles, come on

C        F    C     Dm     Bb   C  Bb  C
Come to daddy

F                 C
Little girl don't notice me

Dm              Bb           C    Bb    C
Watching as she innocently plays

F                C
She can't see me staring at her

Dm          Bb               C     Bb   C
Because I'm always wearing shades

Bb                  C
She feeds the ducks, looks at the flowers

Bb                       C
I follow her around for hours and hours and hours

Bb
I'd take her home, but that could never be

      C
She's just a substitute

    C                            F    C   Dm  Bb
For what they've been taken from me

C
Ah, come to daddy, come on

C        F    C     Dm     Bb   C
Come to daddy

F           C                  Dm
Sunday afternoon can't last forever

     Bb               C     Bb   C
Wish I could take you home

C    Bb                  C
So, come on, give us a smile

Bb                        C
Before you vanish out of view

Bb                     C
I've learned to appreciate you

    C#dim          Dm  
The way art lovers do

      Bb                   F    C     Dm     Bb   C
And I only want to look at you

C
Ah, come to daddy, come on

C        F    C     Dm     Bb   C
Come to daddy
