Summertime Blues Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C]
[F][C][G]

[Verse 1]
The [C]sun set so late tonight
I [F]wonder if you saw it [C]too
Wish I [F]still had someone to [C]lose
All I [G]got are these [C]summertime blues

[Verse 2]
Bet there's a [C]green-eyed-dark-haired beauty
On some [F]beach by [C]Monterey
Letting [F]waves wash her pain a[C]way
But I'll never [G]know

[Verse 3]
Bet there's some [C]boys out in Okie
That are [F]praying to get the job [C]done
Hauling [F]hay and fighting off the [C]sun
With ladies waitin' in [G]town

[Chorus 1]
My summertime [F]blues, summertime [C]blues
I've got [G]nothing left to [Am]prove
I'm out of [F]touch and out of [C]tune, singing a[G]lone
To the birds up [F]high and the souls be[C]low
All those [G]boys who ain't got no [Am]home
The beautiful [F]girls I'll never [C]hold
This one's for [G]you
My summer[F]time [C]blues[G][Am]
My summer[F]time [C]blues[G]

[Verse 4]
The [C]quiet turns to revelry
As the [F]sun burns away the [C]spring
The [F]coastline starts to [C]sing
With the young and [G]heartless

[Verse 5]
[C]Hilton Head and the Hamptons
Where the [F]rich all go to [C]die
The [F]young kids all get [C]high
Just to pass [G]time

[Verse 6]
I bought a [C]bottle of the best bourbon
A [F]beat down boy could [C]buy
I'm gonna [F]bury all my [C]sorrow
As the [G]summertime [C]passes by

[Chorus 2]
Summertime [F]blues, summertime [C]blues
I've got [G]nothing left to [Am]prove
I'm out of [F]touch and out of [C]tune, singing a[G]lone
To the birds up [F]high and the souls be[C]low
All those [G]boys who ain't got no [Am]home
The beautiful [F]girls I'll never [C]hold
This one's for [G]you
My summer[F]time [C]blues[G][Am]
My summer[F]time [C]blues[G]

[Outro 1]
The [C]sun set so late tonight
I [F]wonder if you saw it [C]too
Wish I [F]still had someone to [C]lose
All I [G]got are these [C]summertime blues
