Notes:- Thanks Richard! I love this song! 
 
I think the chord in 'And her lovin' comes on so strong ' Should be a G instead of a C - any  
thoughts? 
 
 
 
{intro} 
Bm A G F#m Em 
Bm A G F#m Em 
 
Bm          A        G 
It's a sunny Sunday 
 
   F#m                   Em 
but we don't want to get out of bed 
 
Bm               A        G 
So we unplug the telephone 
 
F#m                     Em 
we got better things to do instead 
 
 
Bm      A      G 
There's no one home 
 
   F#m        Em   D/F# 
nobody with a name 
 
 
 
{chorus} 
Em              D/F#     Em 
We're just like animals 
 
           D/F#    C 
just like animals 
 
                     G      D/F# 
rolling and tumbling on and on 
 
Em        D/F#     Em 
Just like animals 
 
   D/F#     C 
we rise and fall 
 
                     C     D 
and her loving comes on so stong 
 
{NO CHORD} 
just like animals 
 
 
 
It's a long, long Monday 
working my fingers down to the bone 
When I get a little minute 
I call her up on the telephone 
She says Hurry Home 
Please, hurry home 
 
 
{chorus} 
 
 
{Harmonica solo} 
 
Em D/F# X4 
Bm A G F#m Em X2 
 
Driving through the crosstown traffic 
no matter how I try, every single light 
turns to red 
So I turn up the radio 
watch her dancing inside my head 
 
 
{chorus} 
 
 
{outro} 
 
Em D/F# X4 
Bm A G F#m Em
