Girls in Their Summer Clothes

Intro:

C                   F              X2
Intro :
                                (2nd time) Well the street lights...

F                       C
Well the street lights shine
         F           C     G
Down on Blessing Avenue
G                C
Lovers they walk by
 F                    G
Holdin' hands two by two

 G                     C
A breeze crosses the porch
 F                  C        G
Bicycle spokes spin 'round
  G                        C
Jacket's on, I'm out the door
   F                            G
Tonight I'm gonna burn this town down

Chorus :
	         F                     C
	And the girls in their summer clothes
	        F                  C
	In the cool of the evening light
	       F                   C
	The girls in their summer clothes
	       G
	Pass me by

Kid's rubber ball smacks
Off the gutter 'neath the lamp light
Big bank clock chimes
Off go the sleepy front porch lights

Downtown the store's alive
As the evening's underway
Things been a little tight
But I know they're gonna turn my way

(Chorus)

G          F
Frankie's Diner's
Bb                   F
Over on the edge of town
Bb                   Am 
Neon sign spinnin' round
        G7             C       F
Like a cross over the Lost and Found

F           Bb
Fluorescent lights
Bb                    F
Flicker above Bob's Grill
         Bb                         Am
Shaniqua brings a coffee and asks "Fill?"
           G7                          C    F    G
And says "Penny for your thoughts now, my boy Bill"

She went away
She cut me like a knife
Hello beautiful thing
Maybe you could save my life

G   F   Eb  Am
In just a glance
F                 C    G
Down here on Magic Street
G      F  Eb      Am
Love's a fool's dance
                 F            C    F  C    G
I ain't got much sense but I still got my feet

(Chorus)

	         F                    C
	And the girls in their summer clothes
	        F                  C    E
	In the cool of the evening light
	     Am                     F
	The girls in their summer clothes
	        G
	Pass me by
