Verse 1:

T[A]he local rock group down the street

T[A]hey serenade the weekend squire
G/A [w/intro riff]
Who just came out to mow his lawn

Chorus 1:

A[C]nother [FaddG]Pleasant Valley S[C]unday ([FaddG]Sunday)
Ch[C]arcoal [FaddG]burning everywh[C]ere[D]
R[E7]ows of h[A]ouses that are a[D]ll t[A]he s[E7]ame
And [Bm]no-[F#m]one se[D]ems [A]to c[E7]are

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:

C[E7]reature 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
I need a change of scenery[(A)]
