VERSE
                                                            
D5          C5               A#5           C5             D5     C5    A#5    C5
Hot summer streets and the pavements are burning I sit around 
D5          C5           A#5       C5         D5     C5      A#5     C5
Trying to smile but the air is so heavy and dry
D5      C5            A#5
Strange voices are sayin'
C5               D5
What did they say?
C5        A#5           C5
Things I can't understand
D5                 C5            A#5           C5            D5    C5   A#5  C5
It's too close for comfort this heat has got right out of hand

CHORUS
       D5         A#5             C5
It's a cruel ... cruel ... cruel summer 
D5         A#5         C5         A#5
           Leaving me here on my own 
        D5             A#5               C5
It's a cruel ... it's a cruel ... cruel summer 
A#5            D5
    Now you've gone

The city is crowded my friends are away and I'm on my own 
D5              C5        A#5      C5          D5      C5      A#5     C5
It's too hot to handle so I gotta get up and go
