DAYLIGHT KATY
INTRO:
 Cmaj7Amaj7Cmaj7Amaj7Cmaj7Amaj7Cmaj7Amaj7
()  ()  ()  ()  ()  ()  ()  () 
     CM7                         AM7
She  walks by the sea where the  seaworld is 
         CM7                   AM7
And she  waits for the man to  come 
     CM7                     AM7
She  lives in town with her  high-heeled friends
         CM7                     AM7
And she  knows it's a long way  down 
         Bm7              E7             AM7
But she  doesn't have to  get up in the  morning 
          Bm7               Esus4    E
With her  hair so soft and  long 
CHORUS:
A                   D    A                   D
Daylight Katy come  on,  Daylight Katy come  on 
    A                    D      A         E        A     E
If  you can't follow me  down,  Daylight  Katy go  home  
A                   D    A                   D
Daylight Katy come  on,  Daylight Katy come  on 
    A                    D      A         E        A     E
If  you can't follow me  down,  Daylight  Katy go  home 
    CM7                        AM7
She walks to the sea where the seaweed is   
          CM7                    AM7
Where the rust and the dirt runs deep 
    CM7                     AM7
She lives nine lives in her midnight world 
      CM7                AM7
While her old man's fast asleep 
         Bm7              E7             AM7
And she  doesn't have to  get up in the  morning 
          Bm7               Esus4    E
With her  hair so soft and  long 
CHORUS:
A                   D    A                   D
Daylight Katy come  on,  Daylight Katy come  on

If  you can't follow me  down,  Daylight  Katy go  home 
    CM7                       AM7
She lives by the sea when the summer wind comes 
    CM7                    AM7
And the sea don't mind at all
    CM7                       AM7
She talks to the sea when the sea runs wild 
        CM7                 AM7
And the waves run steep and tall 
         Bm7              E7             AM7
And she  doesn't have to  get up in the  morning 
          Bm7               Esus4    E
With her  hair so soft and  long 
CHORUS:

Daylight Katy come  on,  Daylight Katy come  on

If  you can't follow me  down,  Daylight  Katy go  home  
A                   D    A                   D
Daylight Katy come  on,  Daylight Katy come  on 
    A                    D      A/E       E        A     E
