Don Henley — Boys Of Summer Chords
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
