This was their second hit single and it followed the same kind of exploding chord 

sequence as "You really got me". Speaking of exploding - I read that Dave Davies

(their guitarist) electrocuted himself the firsttime he played the "You really got me"

riff  (it has the chord sequence of  G  A  A  G  A). Anyway,

    I'm   not      con - tent     to       b   -   e     with     you 



    

     this pattern keeps on repeating.



LYRICS:

I'm not content to be with you in the daytime

Girl I want to be with you all of the time

The only time I feel all right is by your side

Girl I want to be  with you all of the time

All day and all of the night

All day and all of the night

All day and all of the night



I believe that you and me last forever

Oh yeah all day the nighttime you leave me never

The only time I feel all right  is by your side

Girl I want to be with you all of the time

All day and all of the night

All day and all of the night

All day and all of the night



Solo: anyone please?



I believe that you and me last forever

Oh yeah all day the nighttime you leave me never

The only time I feel all right  is by your side

Girl I want to be with you all of the time

All day and all of the night

All day and all of the night

All day and all of the night
