Intro - G D A A
[G] [D] [E] [A] [G]
[A]Girl it always seems about September
[E]That's the time, again I remember the l[F#m]ights
And all the fun of those s[C#m]ummer nights
[D]Young and innocent and livin' fast
[A]Didn't know enough to know
That a summer l[E]ove can't last
[E]Can't last
[A]And the snow it fell without a warning
[E]Left Me standing out in the cold,My heart s[F#m]hattered
Thinking only of ye[C#m]sterdays
[D]Does Me no good to reminisce
[A]I can really only tell You this
If I h[E]ad My way
I'd take [F#m]yesterday
(Do you remember those)
[G]Summer nights a[D]ll night
Dancin' in the li[A]ght of love
(Dancin' in the light of love)
[G]Summer nights so[D] right
Couldn't last b[E]eyond [A]Sept[E]embe[A]r
[G]Summer nights a[D]ll night
Livin' for your [A]love
Dreamin' only[E] of
Y[A]ou and summer [G]nights
[A]I remember playin' by the shoreline
[E]Before the fall when we had it all at our f[F#m]ingertips
Buildin' castles in the dr[C#m]iftin' sand
[D]Raced the waves as they ran to the shore
[A]But the tides were turned for ever more
And the thi[E]ngs we planned
Were castles [F#m]made of sand
(Do You remember those)
[G]Summer nights [D]so right
Dancin' in the l[A]ight of love
(Dancin' in the light of love)
[G]Summer nights s[D]o right
Couldn't last b[E]eyond [A]Sept[E]embe[A]r
[G]Summer nights a[D]ll night
Livin' for your [A]love
Dreamin only [E]of
Y[A]ou and summer ni[G]ghts
[G]Oooh summer nights
[G]Makin' love beneath the northern lights
[A]Oooh summer nights
Now I'm b[G]ack on my [D]own [A]again
[G]Oooh summer nights
[G]We were diamonds in the rough in the moonlight
[A]Oooh summer nights
Now I'm o[G]ut in the [D]cold [A]again
ba[G]ck on my [D]own a[A]gain
...I remember those...
Chorus .. outro..
