F#                  A#m                B   C# 
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh, Oh 


Verse:
 
         F# 
Like the first wheel goes around and around 
         A#m 
Well the trouble with up is there's always a down 
          B 
First I'm holding your hand and we're on the boardwalk 
        C# 
There's heaven right here on these streets and these docks 


Verse:
        F# 
But the sun keeps settin', the days go fast 
        A#m 
And the sand the beach is like an hourglass 
B 
I can just feel it all slipping away 
    C# 
And babe I can already say that 



[Refrão]
 
          F#               D#m

As great as it is, you know what's a bummer 
C#                                       F# 
I ain't ever gonna beat this summer with you

The taste of your kiss is so bittersweet 
              C#                                           F#

Verse:
 
F# 
Before you know it it's all gonna stop 
           A#m 
They'll be rolling up windows and puttin' up tops 
     B 
Be a cold wind blowin' the leaves through the air 
    C# 
You won't find a tan line anywhere 


Verse:

F# 
Baby I know that it ain't over yet 
   A#m  
So let's make the most of what we have left 
         B 
But it's hard living for this moment we're in and 
C# 
Knowing it's all gonna end?

Yeah looking at you, girl, standing there 
                                               B 
Got your wayfarers on and the sun in your hair 
                                                C#  
And just like the song in a seashell, you'll be stuck in my mind

Bouncing around in my head and baby I can tell
