Em
I found a pile of Polaroids
C
In the crates of a record shop
G
They were sexy, sexy looking back
B7
From a night that time forgot

Boy he was something debonair in 1979

And she had Farrah Fawcett hair

Carafes of blood red wine
C Em
In the summertime
C B7
In the summertime
Prechorus:
G B7 Em C
Oh don’t you wonder when the light begins to fade?

And the clock just makes the colors turn to grey

Forever younger, growing older just the same

All the memories that we make will never change

We’ll stay drunk, we’ll stay tan, let the love remain

And I swear that I’ll always paint you golden days

Verse:
Em C
I bet they met some diplomats on Bianca Jagger’s new yacht
G
With their caviar and dead cigars
B7
The air was sauna hot
Em
I bet they never even thought about
C
The glitter dancing on the skin
G
The decades might’ve washed it out
B7
As the flashes popped like pins
C Em
In the summertime
C B7
In the summertime
Prechorus:
G B7 Em C
Oh don’t you wonder when the light begins to fade?

Forever younger, growing older just the same

All the memories that we make will never change
Chorus:
G B7
We’ll stay drunk, we’ll stay tan, let the love remain

And I swear that I’ll always paint you golden days
