On The Sunny Side Of The Street
Words & Music by Dorothy Fields & Jimmy McHugh, 1929
Recorded by Jo Stafford, 1945 (#17)
[G7] [C] [C/B] [Bm7]-5 [E7]
Grab your coat and get your hat,
[F] [Bm7]-5 [Bb9]
Leave your worries on the door - step;
[Am] [Am]+7 [D9] [D7]
Just direct your feet
[F] [G7] [C]
To the sunny side of the street.
[G7] [C] [C/B] [Bm7]-5 [E7]
Can't you hear the pitter-pat?
[F] [Bm7]-5 [Bb9]
And that happy tune is your step!
[Am] [Am]+7 [D9] [D7]
Life can be complete
[Dm7] [G7] [C]
On the sunny side of the street.
Bridge:
[CM7] [C7] [Gm7] [C7] [Gm7] [F]
I used to walk in the shade with those blues on parade;
[D9] [Am7] [D7] [G7] [G9]
But I'm not afraid -- this rover crossed over!
[G7] [C] [C/B] [Bm7]-5 [E7]
If I never had a cent,
[F] [Bm7]-5 [Bb9]
I'd be rich as Rock - e - fel - ler,
[Am] [Am]+7 [D9] [D7]
Gold dust at my feet
[Dm7] [G7] [C]
On the sunny side of the street.
