        So, this is the title track (and possibly the best)
off the debut album from the most under-rated band in the
world, so I hope that someone out there decided to search
for tab to their songs and was pleasantly surprised to find
something waiting for them (or horrified at how wrong it is,
but I'm sure it's correct.) If anyone wants to pick fault
with the tab, or make any comments or suggestions about it,
please send all that to: pigeonpie@isaac.globalnet.co.uk

INTRO:

Play Riff 1 ten times
then play Riff 2 once



VERSE:

Play Riff 2 twice
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bike/take_in_the_sun_crd.html ]
(1st time)
Inside the open air on Sunday
Cruising would go down well, if only
Clouds overhead in turn
Would head downstream

(2nd time)
Outside on picnic lawns so green
Eating 'til half past three, it seems
Skies overhead so blue
Would shine so clean



CHORUS:

Play Riff 3 once

So let's just stay here,
Take in the sun and dream of distant rain
So let's remain here,
Take in the sun and send cold winds away

then play Riff 1 four times



VERSE:

Play Riff 2 twice

(1st time)
Falling asleep in light that dazzles
Like it the way your mind unravels
Waking in time to see
It's time for tea

(2nd time)
Rising above a tree off yonder
Sun in the sky, it seems would ponder
How in the world did things
Get so serene?

then play:-
445xxx
And we'll get by and maybe

667xxx
See another sunny day



REPEAT CHORUS

then play Riff 1 four times
