Verse 1:
Eb5
   Nobody on the road
nobody on the beach
B5
  I feel it in the air
the summer's out of reach 
C#5
Empty lake empty streets
the sun goes down alone
B5
  I'm driving by your house
though I know you're not at home 


Chorus 1:
F#5
  But I can see you
C#5
  Your brown skin
shining in the sun
You got your hair combed back 
        B5
and your sunglasses on baby
F#5                      C#5
  And I can tell you my love
for you will still be strong
                  B5
After the boys of summer have gone

Verse 2:
Eb5
   I never will forget those nights
I wonder if it was a dream 
B5
  Remember how you made me crazy?
remember how I made you scream
C#5
  Now I don't understand
what happened to our love
B5
  But babe I'm gonna get you back
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of


Chorus 2:
F#5             C#5
  I can see you  Your brown
skin shining in the sun

I see you walking real slow and

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

I saw a black flag 
sticker on a Cadillac

  A little voice 
Inside my head said
Don't look back You 
can never look back

  I thought I knew what 
love was What did I know?

  Those days are gone forever
              (hold)
I should just let them go but
