[Intro]
Eb5 C5        Eb5 C5 Eb5 C5
      Oh, yeah


[Chorus]
G
Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon
                                 Em
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon


[Verse 1]
C                      Am
Slipshod gymslip in my neighbourhood
C                      Am
Empty head, steel bed, Dipseys no good
C             G/B           Gm/Bb      A
All alone, no telephone, to hype up my baby


[Chorus]
G
Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon
                                 Em
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon
Eb5 C5        Eb5 C5
      Oh, yeah


[Verse 2]
C                       Am
Bent spent, psychedelic mailman's head
C                             Am
Gorging up my spokes like the ghostly dead
C          G/B          Gm/Bb  A
Ally pally angel chewing up my blues


[Chorus]
G
Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon
                                 Em
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon


[Bridge]
F           Em   F              Em
Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon
C                   Am
It'll make you feel good. It'll make you feel good
F           Em   F              Em
Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon
C              Am
It'll make you feel good. It'll make you feel good


[Verse 3]
C                       Am
First girl I ever met I don't recognise
    C                                        Am
Her nose is smashed her frame is bent, she's covered in flies
C          G/B              Gm/Bb        A
Everyone I ever loved, I'll love 'till I die


[Chorus]
G
Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon
                                 Em
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon


[Bridge]
F           Em   F              Em
Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon
C                   Am
It'll make you feel good. It'll make you feel good
F           Em   F              Em
Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon
C                   Am
It'll make you feel good. It'll make you feel good


[Verse 4]
C                      Am
Slipshod gymslip in my neighbourhood
C                      Am
Empty head, steel bed, Dipseys no good
C             G/B           Gm/Bb      A
All alone, no telephone, to hype up my baby


[Chorus]

Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon
