[D#] [A] [E]
[B] [F#m] It [B]
[A] was a hot afternoon, [E]
the last day of June, [B] and the sun [F#m] was a demon.
[B]
[A] The clouds were afraid, [E]
one tan in the shade, [B] and the pavement [F#m] was steaming.
[B]
I [A] told Billy Ray, [E] in his red Chevrolet, [B] I needed time for [F#m] some thinking.
[B]
[A] I was just walking by, [E] when I looked in her eye, [B] and I swore it was thinking.
[D] She was thirty-one, [Bm] and I was seventeen.
[C#m] I knew nothing about love, [F#] she knew everything.
[D] I sat down beside her, [Bm] on her front porch sheen, [C#] and wondered [C#] what the coming [F#m] night would bring.
[B] [F#m] [E] [B]
[F#m] [B] [A]
The sun closed her eyes, [E] as it climbed in [B] the skies, and it started to swelter.
[A] The sweat trickled down, [E] the front of her gown, [B] and I thought it would melt her.
She threw back her hair, [E] like I wasn't there, [B] and she sipped [F#m] on a Juul [B] lid.
Her shoulders were bare, and I tried not to stare, when I looked at her two lids.
[D] And when she looked at me, I [Bm] heard her softly say,
[C#m] I know you're young, you don't know [F#m] what to do or say,
[D] but stay with me until the [Bm] sun has gone away, [C#] and I will chase the boy in [F#m] you away.
[B] [F#m]
[E] [B]
[F#m] And then she smiled, then we talked for a while, [C#m] then we walked for a mile to [F#] the sea.
[D] We sat on the sand, [Bm] and a boy took her hand, [C#m] but I saw the sun rise as [F#] a man.
[D] [Bm]
[C#m] [F#m]
[D] [Bm]
[C#] [F#m]
[B] [F#m] [E] [B]
[A] Ten years had gone by, [E] since I looked in her eye, [B] but the memory lingered.
[A] I go back in my mind, [E] to the very first time, [B] and feel the touch of her finger.
[A] It was a hot afternoon, [E] the last day of June, [B] and the sun was a demon.
The clouds were afraid, one tan in the shade.
