lyrics from reprint of 1986 sheet music
Bb Fm7/Bb
The local rock group down the street is trying hard to learn their song.
Bb Fm7/Bb
They serenade the local squire who just came out to mow his lawn.
Db Gb Db Gb
Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
Db Gb Db Eb
Charcoal burning everywhere.
F Bb Eb Bb Cm
Rows of houses that are all the same
Bb Cm Gm7 Cm Gm7 F
And no one seems to care.
Bb Fm7/Bb
See Missus Gray, she's proud today because her roses are in bloom;
Bb Fm7/Bb
And Mister Green, he's so serene, he's got a TV in ev'ry room.
Db Gb Db Gb

Others complain about how hard life is
Cm Gm7 Cm Gm7 F
And the kids just don't understand.
F Cm7/F
Creature comfort goals
