The Boys of Summer

Dm 
Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
Bb
I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach
C
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
Bb
I'm driving by your house
Though I know you're not home but

F
I can see you
     C
Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got your hair combed back and your
Bb
Sunglasses on baby
F                 C
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
                  Bb
After the boys of summer, have gone

I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream
Remember how you made me crazy
Remember how I made you scream
Now I don't understand
What happened to our love
But babe I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of

I can see you
Your brown skin shining in the sun
I see you walking real slow
Smiling at everyone
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer, have gone

Out on the road today
I saw a deadhead sticker on a cadillac
A little voice inside my head said:
"Don't look back, you can never look back"
I thought I knew what love was
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go but,

I can see you
Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got the top pulled down
Radio on baby
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer have gone
I can see you
Your brown skin shining in the sun
You got your hair slicked back and those
Wayfarers on, baby
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
After the boys of summer, have gone
