F         C              Dm 
Sunday afternoon there's something special 
     Bb                C 
It's just like another world. 
F              C          Dm 
Jogging in the park is my excuse 
   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                                 C 
I'm not gonna snatch you from your mother, 
C                      
I'm an art lover. 
        F C Dm Bb 
Come to daddy, 
C                
Ah, come to daddy, 
        F C Dm Bb 
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 
           C 
I'm an art lover. 
        F C Dm Bb C 
Come to daddy, 
                        F C Dm Bb C 
And I'll give you some spangles. 

F                 C 
Little girl don't notice me 
Dm              Bb         C 
Watching as she innocently plays. 
F                C 
She can't see me staring at her 
Dm                 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. 
Bb                              
I'd take her home, but that could never be, 
      C 
She's just a substitute 
                      F C Dm Bb C 
For what's been taken from me. 
                        F C Dm Bb C 
Ah, come to daddy, come on. 

F      C                     Dm       
Sunday afternoon can't last forever, 
     Bb               C 
Wish I could take you home. 
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 
                   Dm 
The way art lovers do, 
Bb                         F C Dm Bb C 
And I only want to look at you.
