Words & Music by Sammy Cahn & Jule Styne

D7   G                  Cdim      Am7               D9 
The boat rides we would take, the moonlight on the lake,

    G6                  G/F#              Bm7-5   E7
The way we danced and hummed our fav'rite song;

      Am7     Cdim     G     Edim       Am7    D9          G   Cdim  D7
The things we did last summer,   I'll remember all winter long.


D7   G            Cdim      Am7             D9
The midway and the fun, the kewpie dolls we won,

    G6             G/F#              Bm7-5   E7
The bell I rang to prove that I was strong;

     Am7     Cdim       G     Edim      Am7    D9          G
The things we did last summer,   I'll remember all winter long.


Bridge:

     Dm7           G7       Dm7            G7
The early morning hike, the rented tandem bike,

	C      C/B     Cdim     C    C/B
The lunches that we used to pack;

    Em7           A7        Em7            A7
We never could explain that sudden summer rain,

	D7              Edim     D9   D7
The looks we got when we got back.


D7   G             Cdim       Am7          D9
The leaves began to fade like promises we made;

     G6               G/F#               Bm7-5    E7
How could a love that seemed to right go wrong?

    Am7      Cdim       G     Edim      Am7     D9          G
The things we did last summer,    I'll remember all winter long.
