Intro:

*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.
Nobody on the
road
nobody on the
beach
I feel it in t
he air
the summer's o
ut of reach
Empty lake,
empty streets,
the sun goes d
own alone
I'm drivin' by
your house
Though I know
you're not hom
e
But I can see you-
Your brown ski
n shinin' in t
he sun
You got your hair combed back and your
sunglasses on,
baby
And I can tell
you my love f
or you
will still be
strong after t
he boys of
summer have go
ne
I never will f
orget those ni
ghts
I wonder if it
was a dream
Remember how y
ou made me cra
zy?
Remember how I
made you scre
am?
Now I don't understand what's happened
to our love,
But baby when I get you back
I'm gonna show
you what I'm
made of
I can see you-
Your brown ski
n shinin' in t
he sun
I see you walk
in' real slow
and you're smi
lin' at everyo
ne
I can tell you
my love for y
ou will still
be strong
after the boys
of summer hav
e gone
BRIDGE:
|||||
Out on the roa
d today I saw
a DEADHEAD sti
cker on a Cadi
llac
A little voice
inside my hea
d said, "Don't
look back. You can never look back."
I thought I kn
ew what love w
as,
What did I kno
w?
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go but-
I can see you-
Your brown ski
n shinin' in t
he sun
You got that t
op pulled down
and that radi
o on baby
And I can tell
you my love f
or you will st
ill be strong
after the boys
of summer hav
e gone
I can see you-
Your brown ski
n shining in t
he sun
You got that h
air slicked ba
ck and
those Wayfarer
s on, baby
I can tell you
my love for y
ou will still
be strong
after the boys
of summer hav
e gone
