Summertime Blues Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[E][A][B][E]
[E][A][B][E]

[Verse 1]
I'm gonna raise a fuss,
I'm gonna raise a holler
[E][A][B][E]
About a-workin' all summer
just to try to earn a dollar
[E][A][B][E]
Ev'ry [A]time I call my baby,
try to get a date
My [E]boss says,
"No dice son, you gotta work late"
[A]Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do
But there [E]ain't no cure
for the summertime blues
[E][A][B][E]
[E][A][B][E]

[Verse 2]
Oh, well, my Mom and Papa told me,
"Son, you gotta make some money"
[E][A][B][E]
If you wanna use the car to
go a-ridin' next Sunday
[E][A][B][E]
Oh, well I [A]didn't go to work,
told the boss I was sick
"Uh, you [E]can't use the car
'cause you didn't work a lick"
[A]Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do
But there [E]ain't no cure
for the summertime blues
[E][A][B][E]
[E][A][B][E]

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna take two weeks,
gonna have a fine vacation
[E][A][B][E]
I'm gonna take my problem
to the United Nations
[E][A][B][E]
Well, I [A]called my congressman, and
he said, quote
"I'd [E]like to help you son,
but you're too young to vote"
[A]Sometimes I wonder what I'm a-gonna do
But there [E]ain't no cure

[Outro 1]
for the summertime blues
