This song has been done pretty well for tabs, but most of the tabs had incorrect chords,

I just decided to make a tab just for chords. I like playin the chords on acoustic.

you want.

Tune your guitar a half-step down for this song. If you don't know how, at the bottom

have a separate way to play the song that sounds the same but may be a little bit more

In the intro, chords do not start until the synthesizer plays the background music that

throughout the song, which is about 10 seconds after the drums begin to play.

Intro:

D|C|D|C

*There are no actual chords in the verses, but I put some chords together that sound

good just so the rythm guitarist has somethin to do.

D C

Nobody on the road

D

nobody on the beach

C

I feel it in the air

D

the summer's out of reach

C

Empty lake,

empty streets,

D

the sun goes down alone

C

I'm drivin' by your house

G

Though I know you're not home

But I can see you-

D D

Your brown skin shinin' in the sun

You got your hair combed back and your

C G

sunglasses on, baby

D

And I can tell you my love for you

D

will still be strong after the boys of

C

summer have gone

D C

I never will forget those nights

D

I wonder if it was a dream

C

Remember how you made me crazy?

D

Remember how I made you scream?

Now I don't understand what's happened

C

to our love,

But baby when I get you back

G

I'm gonna show you what I'm made of

I can see you-

D

Your brown skin shinin' in the sun

D C

I see you walkin' real slow and you're smilin' at everyone

G D

I can tell you my love for you will still be strong

D C

after the boys of summer have gone

BRIDGE:

C|C|C|D|C|D

D

Out on the road today I saw a DEADHEAD sticker on a Cadillac

C

A little voice inside my head said, "Don't

look back. You can never look back."

D

I thought I knew what love was,

C

What did I know?

Those days are gone forever

I should just let them go but-

G

I can see you-

D D

Your brown skin shinin' in the sun

C

You got that top pulled down and that radio on baby

G D

And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong

D C

after the boys of summer have gone

G

I can see you-

D

Your brown skin shining in the sun

D

You got that hair slicked back and

C

those Wayfarers on, baby

G D

I can tell you my love for you will still be strong

D C

after the boys of summer have gone
