[Em] Nobody on the road, nobody on the [Am] beach [C] I feel it in the air, the summer's out of
[D] reach Empty lake, empty streets, the sun goes down
alone [C] I'm driving by your house, though I know you're
not [G] home But I can see you, [D] your brown skin shining
in the sun You got your hair combed [C] back and your sunglasses
on, [G] baby I can tell [D] you'll be strong, [C] summer have [Em] gone
I never will forget those nights I wonder if it was a [C] dream
Remember how you made me crazy Remember how I made you [G] scream
[D] Now I don't understand what happened to our love
[C] Babe, I'm gonna get you back I'm gonna show you what I'm [G] made of
I can see you, [D] your brown skin shining in the sun
I see you walking real [C] slow and smiling at [G] everyone
I can tell you my [D] love for you will still be strong
After the [C] boys of summer have [Em] gone

[Em] Out on the road today I saw a deadhead sticker on a
[C] Cadillac
A little voice inside my head said don't look back, you can never look [D] back
I thought I knew what love was, what did I know
[C] Those days are gone forever, I should just [G] let them go
I can see you, [D] your brown skin shining in the sun
[C]
[G] I can tell [D] you my love for you will still be strong
After [C] the boys of summer have gone
[G] I can see you, [D] your brown skin shining in the sun
I see you walking real slow and [C] smiling at everyone
