Summer In the City (1966)
1.
Hot town, summer in the city,
Am D
back of my neck getting dirty and gritty,
Am D Am D
been down, isn`t it a pity, doesn`t seem to
be a shadow in the city.
E E7
All round people looking half-dead,
Am A7
walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a
match head.
But at night it`s different world, go out and find a girl,
D
G
come one, come on and
dance all night,
D G
you trust in me,
it`ll be alright.
Bm E Bm
And Babe, don`t you
know, it`s a pity, that the days
E Bm E
can`t be like the
nights, in the summer, in the city,
Bm E
in the summer, in the
city.
2.
Cool town, evening in the city,
Am D
dressing so fine and you`re looking so pretty,
Am D Am D
cool cat, looking for a kitty, gonna look
in every corner of the city,
E E7
till I am wheezing like a bus stop,
Am A7
running up the stairs, gonna meet you at
the rooftop. + CHORUS
