Summer in the City - Lovin' Spoonful
INTRO: Am Am/G D/F# F E X 2
Am Am/G D/F# F E
Hot town, summer in the city back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Am Am/G D/F# F E
Been down, isn't it a pity doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
E E7
All around, people looking half dead
Am A
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
CHORUS
D G D G
But at night it's a different world Go out and find a girl
D G D G
Come-on come-on and dance all night Despite the heat it'll be alright
Bm E Bm E
And babe, don't you know it's a pity That the days can't be like the nights
Bm E Bm E
In the summer, in the city In the summer, in the city
Am Am/G D/F# F E
Cool town, evening in the city; Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
Am Am/G D/F# F E
Cool cat, looking for a kitty; Gonna look in every corner of the city
E E7
Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop
Am A
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop
