Shame on you if you don't know the rest

Verse 1: Slow and mournful
            Em                     Emsus2 G
It's mi-nus twen-ty in Snow-do-nia mi-nus thir-ty in the North [BAH GUM!],
       C                                 F#7
mi-nus for-ty up in Scot-land, ver-glas, snow-storms and so forth.
     Em                      Emsus2   G
So I think that for my ho-li-day I'll go some oth-er place;
         C                                  F#7             D7
but it's free-zing here on Ea-arth, so I'll head for Ou-ter Space...

Chorus: Wistful rock
E                              G
   It's al-ways sum-mer on the Sun, 
       C                                   B7
and de-spite the lack of climb-ing there a vis-it might be fun;
      E                              G
we'll have to put on su-un-cream and nice as-bes-tos suits and hire a 
C                        F#7
U-F-O with air-con and a fridge in-side the boot.

Verse 2: Calm, steady
      Em                                 G
As we fly through the i-on-o-sphere I'll don my U-V-A re-sis-tant
C                                     F#7
spec-ta-cles and swim-ming trunks and snor-kel and the day that we
   Em                          G
ar-rive in in-ter-plan-e-ta-ry space I'll be quite pleased be-cause
     C                                F#7
it's ne-ver e-ver snowed or hailed or rained or e-ven freezed.

(Chorus)

Verse 3: Deadpan
We-e'll reach the Sun's co-ro-na 'bout a ye-ar af-ter that and as we 
plunge in-to the pho-to-sphere my last thought will be that
it's ac-tually re-ally ra-ther pret-ty stu-pid fly-ing all this way
to die a hor-ri-ble fie-ry scream-ing death in such a na-sty way...

Final Chorus:

E                              G  
   It's al-ways sum-mer on the Sun,
           C                                Asus2
but that's not e-nough to make a trip there worth it in the long run
            E                                 G
'cos you'll burn up in-to a crisp a char-coal bis-cuit, that's not nice:
                C                               F#7             D7
it's bet-ter by far to stay on Earth than to be at-om-ised in a trice...
               D7
...e-ven so...
E               A       G      E    [Harmonic B,E]
   It's al-ways sum-mer on the Sun.
