The Boys Of Summer Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Drum intro]
[Am][E][G][E]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
[E]I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach
[G]Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
[E]I'm driving by your house

[Chorus 1]
Don't know you're not home
[C]But I can see you
[G]Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got your hair combed back and your
[E]Sunglasses on, baby
[C]I can tell you,
my [G]love for you will still be strong
After the boys of [E]summer have gone

[Interlude 1]
[Am][E][G][E]

[Verse 2]
[Am]I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream
[E]Remember how you
made me crazy
Remember how I made you scream
[G]And I don't understand
what happened to our love
[E]But, babe, I'm gonna get you back

[Chorus 2]
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of
[C]I can see you
[G]Your brown skin shining in the sun
I see you walking real slow and
[E]You're smiling at everyone
[C]I can tell you,
my [G]love for you will still be strong
After the boys of [E]summer have gone

[Verse 3]
[Am]Out on the road today
I saw a Deadhead sticker on a Cadillac
[E]A little voice inside inside my head said
"Don't look back, you can never look back"
[G]I thought I knew what love was
What did I know
[E]Those days are gone forever

[Chorus 3]
I should just let 'em go, but
[C]I can see you
[G]Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got your top pulled down
[E]Radio on, baby
[C]I can tell you,
my [G]love for you will still be strong
After the boys of [E]summer have gone

[Chorus 4]
[C]I can see you
[G]Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got your hair slicked back and those
[E]Wayfarers on, baby
[C]I can tell you,
my [G]love for you will still be strong
After the boys of [E]summer have gone
