On the Sunny Side of the Street
Dorothy Fields and Jimmy McHugh, 1930


[G7↓]
Grab your | [C] coat and get your | [E7] hat,
leave your | [F] worry on the | [G7] door step,
| [C] Just direct your | [A7] feet,
to the | [Dm] sunny [G7] side of the | [C] street. [G7]

Can't you | [C] hear the pitter | [E7] pat?
And that | [F] happy tune is | [G7] your step
| [C] Life can be so | [A7] sweet
on the | [Dm] sunny [G7] side of the | [C] street

I used to | [C7] walk in the | shade.
With those | [F] blues on pa- | rade.  
But | [D7] I'm not a- | fraid.
This | [G7↓↓]  rover [Z↓↓]  crossed [G7↓↓] over.

If I | [C] never have a | [E7] cent,
I'll be | [F] rich as Rocke- | [G7] feller.
| [C] Gold dust at my | [A7] feet,
on the | [Dm] sunny [G7] side of the | [C] street.

I used to | [C7] walk in the | shade.

If I | [C] never have a | [E7] cent,
I'll be | [F] rich as Rocke- | [G7] feller.
| [C] Going to set my | [A7] feet,
on the | [Dm] sunny [G7] side of the | [A7] street
...on the | [Dm] sunny [G7] side of the | [G↓↓] street [C↓↓] | [C↓] [G7↓] [C↓]
