[E] [B]
[D] [G]
[D] [G]
[D] The end has come, [G] found us here, [D] with our toys scattered all around us here.
The puzzle that we never [G] found an answer for, [D] still ask us darling just what [G] all the games were for.
And [F] here we stand, [A] in a box of [D] sand, where's the playground [G] Susie?
[D] You're the one supposed to [Em] know the way [A] up, [D] where's the playground Susie?
If I don't stay around, [A] if I [F#m] don't stay around.
[Em]
[D] [G]
[D]
The carousel [G] stopped us here, [D] it twirled a time or two and then [G] it brought us here.
[D] Still you're not content with [Em] something about me, but [D] what merry-go-round can you ride [Em] without me [F] to take your hand in mine.
[A] I want you,
[D] where's the playground [D] Susie?
I'd let you go and [A] play around,
[D] where's the playground Susie?
If I don't stay around, [A] if I [F#m] don't stay around.
[F]
[F] I said I'd like to be your friend today, but I can't because someone else has asked me out to play.
Someone who will share their apple, [Em] help me when I fall.
[G] [Em] [A]
[E] [A] [D]
Where's the playground [G] Susie?
Right it's time to let you [F#] go and play around.
[A] [D]
Where's the playground [G] Susie?
[D] You're the one supposed to know.
[A] [D]
[Em] [D]
Thank you very much.
For the girls.
[G] She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles that [C] weren't there yesterday.
Thinks of the young man that [G] she almost married, [C] what [B] would he think if he saw her this way?
[D] She picks up her apron in little girl fashion, [C] as something comes into her mind.
[G] [C] Slowly starts dancing [G] remembering her [C] girlhood and all of [B] the boys she had awaiting [D] in line.
[Am] Oh such are the dreams of the everyday [G] housewife, you see [Am] everywhere in a time [D] of the day.
An everyday [C] housewife who gave up the [G] good life for me.
[A] The photograph album she takes from the closet [D] and slowly turns the page.
Carefully picks [A] up the crumbling flower, the first one he gave her now [C#] withered with age.
[A] She closes her eyes and touches the house dress [D] that suddenly disappeared.
[F#] [D] Then she is [A] wearing that almighty gown that broke all their [Bm] minds back [E] so many years.
Oh such are [Bm] the dreams of the everyday housewife, you see everywhere in a time [E] of the day.
An everyday [D] housewife who gave up the good [A] life for me.
[Bm] [C#m]
Oh such are the dreams of the everyday [B] housewife, you [C#m] see everywhere in a time of [F#] the day.
An everyday housewife [E] who gave up the good life for [C#m] me.
