The Boys Of Summer

EmNobody on the road, nobody on the beach.
CI feel it in the air, the summer's out of reach.
DEmpty lake, empty streets, the sun goes down alone.
CI'm driving by your house, though I know you're not home.
GBut I can see you, Dyour brown skin shining in the sun.
You got your hair combed back and youCr sunglasses on, baby.
GI can tell you, my Dlove for you will still be strong
After the boys of Csummer have gone.

EmI never will forget those nights, I wonder if it was a dream.
CRemember how you made me crazy, remember how I made you scream.
DNow I don't understand what happened to our love.
CBut babe, I'm gonna get you back, I'm gonna show you what I'm made of.
GI can see you, Dyour brown skin shining in the sun.
I see you walkin' real slow and Csmiling to everyone.
GI can tell you, my Dlove for you will still be strong
After the boys of Csummer have gone.

EmOut on the road today I saw a Deadhead Sticker on a Cadillac.
CA little voice inside my head said: "Don't look back, you can never look back."
DI thought I knew what love was. What did I know?
CThose days are gone forever, I should just let 'em go, but
GI can see you, Dyour brown skin shining in the sun.
You got the top pulled down and Cradio on, baby.
GI can tell you, my Dlove for you will still be strong
After the boys of Csummer have gone.
GI can see you, Dyour brown skin shining in the sun.
You got your hair slicked back and those CWayfarers on, baby.
GI can tell you, my Dlove for you will still be strong
After the boys of Csummer have gone.
