A        C#m                           Bm        Dm
Tea time won't be the same without my Donna
A        C#m                       Bm      Dm
At night I lie awake and dream of Donna
C#                 F#m
I think about that small caf�
C#                      F#m
That's where we used to meet each day
C#                  F#m    F#                       
And then we used to sit a while
       D           G    F#m
And drink our afternoon tea

Chorus:
C#m        B         A
I'll take afternoon tea (afternoon tea)
C#m     B           A
If you take it with me (afternoon tea)
A                        E
You take as long as you like
          B
'cause I like you, girl

C#m     B         A
I take sugar with tea (afternoon tea)
C#m        B          A
You take milk if you please (afternoon tea)
A                   E
Like you talking to me
            B
Because you ease my mind
