D#m 
Nobody on the road  
D#m 
Nobody on the beach  
B 
I feel it in the air  
B 
The summer's out of reach  
C# 
Empty lake, empty streets  
C# 
The sun goes down alone  
B  
I'm drivin' by your house  
B 
Though I know you're not at home   
  
F# 
But I can see you-  
C#  
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun  
C#                                     B   
You got your hair combed back and your sunglasses on, baby  
F#                     C#  
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong  
C#                 
After the boys of summer have gone   
  
D#m 
I never will forget those nights  
D#m  
wonder if it was a dream  
B  
Remember how you made me crazy?  
B 
Remember how I made you scream  
C#                       
Now I don't understand what happened to our love  
B  
But babe, I'm gonna get you back  
                    
I'm gonna show you what I'm made of   
  
I can see you-  
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun  
I see you walkin' real slow and you're smilin' at everyone  
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong  
After the boys of summer have gone  
  
D#m                                
Out on the road today, I saw a DEADHEAD sticker on a Cadillac  
B                                     
A little voice Inside my head said, Don't look back. You can never look back.  
C#  
I thought I knew what love was  
C#  
what did I know?  
B  
Those days are gone forever  

I should just let them go but-   
  
I can see you-  
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun  
You got that top pulled down and that radio on, baby  
And I can tell you my love for you will still be strong  
After the boys of summer have gone   
  
I can see you-  
Your brown skin shinin' in the sun  
You got that hair slicked back and those Wayfarers on, baby  
I can tell you my love for you will still be strong  
After the boys of summer have gone
