Verse 1:

         A
        The local rock group down the street
                                      G/A [w/intro riff]
        Is trying hard to learn their song
         A
        They serenade the weekend squire
                                     G/A [w/intro riff]
        Who just came out to mow his lawn

Chorus 1:

         C      FaddG            C      FaddG
        Another Pleasant Valley Sunday (Sunday)
          C      FaddG          C        D 
        Charcoal burning everywhere
         E7      A               D   A   E7
        Rows of houses that are all the same
            Bm F#m   D   A   E7
        And no-one seems to care

Verse 2:

        See Mrs. Gray, she's proud today
        Because her roses are in bloom
        And Mr. Green, he's so serene
        He's got a TV in every room

Chorus 2:

        Another Pleasant Valley Sunday (Sunday)
        Here in status symbol land
        Mothers complain about how hard life is
        And the kids just don't understand

Bridge:

         E7
        Creature comfort goals
        They only numb my soul
        And make it hard for me to see
        My thoughts all seem to stray
        To places far away
                                   (A)
        I need a change of scenery

[repeat intro riff w/bass, 2X]

[repeat verse w/wordless vocal]

Chorus 3:

         C      FaddG            C      FaddG
        Another Pleasant Valley Sunday (Sunday)
         C      FaddG          C
        Charcoal burning everywhere
         F       Bb              F     Bb
        Another Pleasant Valley Sunday
         F       Bb            F       (A)
        Here in status symbol land
