[A] [D]
[A] We [D]
[E] were working [D] on a tune,
cutting drum and bass for it.
And Hook would go in that back room
and he would just disappear.
And we'd be like,
all right, Hook's working on some lyrics or whatever,
[A] you know?
And we would finish cutting drum and bass on [Bm] the tune.
And then Hook would come in and be like,
[A] y'all wanna catch a little [D] tease?
And we're like, what do you [A] mean?
And he'd be like, follow me.
And he'd take us back in the room
and we'd go back in [D] there
and he'd hit space [N] bar.
And you know, that shit's like the joy of making a record
where all of a sudden, you know,
everyone's like, oh shit!
You know, [Bm] like the party's on [F#m] in the room,
we're all dancing, we're [D] vibing.
[C#m] [D]
[A] ♪ You [D] all
[E] [D]
broke [A] me.
[D]
[E] [A]
And this one, I know [D] for sure,
[A] we had like scheduled [Bm] out,
oh, okay, after we do the drum and bass on this tune,
we're gonna move on, we're gonna cut this one.
[A] Something that was on our list.
And we're like, okay, we gotta [D] get to this one next.
[A] We're like, okay, everything's on hold.
[D] Sounds of summer.
[A] We're switching gears, cutting it from the get-go.
Queued up a click track, got G on the [Bm] drums,
got the beat down, [Am] started laying bass,
started laying guitar.
[F#m] Came up with a horn line.
[A] [D]
[A] Makes you wanna like [D] put the top [A] down
and the convertible and cruiser,
be chilling on [F#] the beach or just enjoying the [A] sunshine.
I'm excited for people to celebrate life to that one.
♪ Girl laughing [D] in the evening sun,
[A] the firecrackers.
[D]
[A] [D]
[F#m]

Right [N] when Josh laid that, we were just like,
ah, it's so cold where we are right now,
but we were like, [A] ah, it [G#] feels warm,
like it was like warmed up.
I already like closed my eyes and felt it
and just brought me back to the [Em] vibe of, you know,
we did the Sounds of Summer tour
with [D] Slightly Stupid and Iration and J-Bug.
[A]
[D] Hearing
[F#m] Sounds of the Summer that Josh wrote,
[A]
when I closed my eyes, brought me [Bm] back
to just that whole
[A] energy and just [D] all these shows,
[A] people were just coming out and [D] like,
[E] you know, it was just such a good vibe.
You [D] know, it's like you look in the crowd
and everyone's just like with their families, [E] loved ones,
and just like so happy and the weather's beautiful.
All the bands have known each other for a while
and friends and connected.
[D] Crew-wise, it couldn't have gotten any more perfect.
You know, and that's, I [N] think, when people think like,
ah, you know, especially in colder states,
when summer's coming, it's like, ah,
take the jackets out, put the hair down, relax.
I think I wrote that on the [D] Sounds of Summer tour
and [F#m] I was like, this is a song that maybe, you know,
we can track with Stupid and [G#]
get it going now, you [F#] know,
and was that three, two [N] years ago?
And that was just one line.
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, [A#] da, da, da, da, da, da.
[G]
[E] Seven years.
[F#m]
Oh, it's [A] been a long time till [Bm] these sunhines have set.
[A] You're rocking through your days,
[D] while your nights you'll forget.
[A] You're spending all your money [D] on some things you'll regret.
[B] Don't [E] really wanna go [B] to [F#m] summertime again.
[A] Well, the days were always [D] long and [A] bright
and the nights will last [D] forever.
[A] The timing always [F#m] feels [Bm] right.
[E] Don't need no stormy [A] weather.
[D] It's not [A] for me.
[D] The summer's where you wanna
