Intro
-----
Em/// C/// D/// C///


Verse 1
-------

Em
Nobody on the road
Nobody on the beach
C
I feel it in the air
The summer's out of reach
D
Empty lake, empty streets
The sun goes down alone
C
I'm driving by your house
Though I know you're not home


Chorus 1
--------

G
But I can see you
D
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
                                       C
You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby
G                     D
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
                  C
After the boys of summer have gone


Verse 2
-------

Em
I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream
C
Remember how you made me crazy?
Remember how I made you scream
D
Now I don't understand what happened to our love
C
But babe, I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of


Chorus 2
--------

G
I can see you
D
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
                                       C
I see you walking real slow and you're smilin' at everyone
G                 D  
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
                  C
After the boys of summer have gone

Verse 3
-------

Em
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 made of
What did I know?
C
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go but-


Chorus 3
--------

G
I can see you
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
                  C
After the boys of summer have gone


Chorus 4
--------

G
I can see you
D
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun
                                         C
You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby
G                 D
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong
                  C
After the boys of summer have gone
