Verse 1
(C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) We were
(C major) nice young (G major) adults,
we proved (C major) ourselves, we (G major) showed results
Like (C major) cats and (G major) dogs who'd
undergone (C major) a fix (G major)
Fash (C major) ionably cynic (G major) al
and (C major) love to us was clin (G major) ical
Long ago (C major) we gave (G major) up getting our kick (C major) s
(G major) But the summer sun (C major) came
(G major) down on (C major) all of us
Fun to feel, (G major) fun to fall
into a sloppy teenage scene (C major) (G major)
Gossip (C major) ing and hav (G major) ing crushes,
(C major) dimming lights to hide our blushes
My God, I thought (G major) I was sixteen (C major) (G major)
(A flat minor) All (A major) those happy hours,
turned the green buds into
flower (D major) s (Dsus4)
This (G major) crazy summer (Gaug) is over
(C minor) No (G major) more bees, (A minor) no more clover (C minor)
And (G major) the rope at the (Dsus4) swimming hole
(D major) Swing (G major) s by the (D major) weight of the (G major) wind
Skidmore girls come back (Gaug) to town, (C minor)
all (G major) the freaks head un (A minor) derground
(C minor) And (G major) we who are (Dsus4) free swing
(G major) like the rope (D major) on that (G major) tree
We (C major) danced and (G major) played some tennis,
(C major) made love with (G major) Fred or Dennis
We drank lots of beer
and ate a whole lot of (C major) food.
(G major) We put our (C major) bodies to (G major) the sun
for (C major) God to see.
And everyone (G major) we swam (C major) dressed
(G major) and we swam nude. (C major) (G major)
And the New York City (C major) bal (G major) let dancers
danced for (C major) all the neighborhood cancers
who (G major) were celebrating their
birthdays in (C major) the sun
(G major) And all that (C major) sun brought (G major) dope and lust
And we wer (C major) en't too smart
and we had a bust
But nobody slept (G major) alone (C major) (G major) (A flat minor)
(A major) Night caught up with day
Summer went away (D major)
This (G major) crazy summer is past (Gaug) now
(C minor) Sunrise (G major) to sunset is fad (A minor) ing fast (C minor) now
And (Dsus4) all I want is to (G major) see
The (D major) rope on that (G major) tree
So bring back the bagels,
bring (Gaug) back the (C minor) lox,
let's (G major) have another Bernal (A minor) equinox.
(C minor) Bring back the laugh (G major) s,
bring back the tears,
(Dsus4) bring back the beer (G major) ,
bring back the dope (D major) and the rope. (G major)
Thank you.
