[Intro]
D5  Bb5 (repeat)

[verse 1:]
D5          D5                G5                    Bb5         A5
  Hot town, summer in the city; back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
D5           D5             G5                 Bb5             A5
  Been down, isn't it a pity; doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
A5              A5
  All around, people looking half dead
D5                       D5
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head

[chorus:]
G5                     C5
  But at night it's a different world
G5            C5
  Go out and find a girl
G5                      C5
  Come-on come-on and dance all night
G5                        C5
  Despite the heat it'll be alright
    E5              A5
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
         E5         A5
That the days can't be like the nights
       E5             A5
In the summer, in the city
       E5             A5
In the summer, in the city

[verse 2:]
Cool town, evening in the city; Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty; Gonna look in every corner of the city
Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop
