SUMMER NIGHTS (from "Grease") by Warren Casey & Jim Jacobs
----------------------------------------------------------
D G A G
Summer lovin', had me a blast
D G A G
Summer lovin', happened so fast
D G A B
Met a girl, crazy for me
E A E A - A7
Met a boy, cute as can be
D G A B
Summer days, drifting away
Em A D D/A D/B D/C#
But oh, oh, those summer nights, a well-a, well-a, well-a
D G E A
Uh, tell me more, tell me more, did you get very far?
D G E A
Tell me more, tell me more, like does he own a car?
D G A G
She swam by me, she got a cramp
He ran by me, got my suit damp
Saved her life, she nearly drowned
He showed off, splashing around
Summer sun, something's begun
But oh, oh, those summer nights, a well-a, well-a, well-a
Uh, tell me more, tell me more, was it love at first sight?
Tell me more, tell me more, did she put up a fight?
Took her bowling in the arcade
We went strolling, drank lemonade
We made out under the dock
We stayed out till ten o'clock
D G A B
Summer fling don't mean a thing
Em A Bb Bb
But oh, oh, those summer nights
Eb Ab F Bb
Tell me more, tell me more, like, you don't have to brag
Eb Ab F Bb
Tell me more, tell me more, 'cause he sounds like a drag
Eb Ab Bb Ab
(Shoowap bop bop, shoowap bop bop, shoowap bop bop, shoowap bop bop)
Eb Ab Bb Ab
He got friendly, holding my hand
Eb Ab Bb Ab
She got friendly, down on the sand
Eb Ab Bb C
He was sweet, just turned eighteen
F Bb F Bb - Bb7
She was good, you know what I mean
Eb Ab Bb C
Summer heat, boy and girl meet
Fm Bb B B
Then oh, oh, those summer nights
E A F# B
Tell me more, tell me more, how much dough did he spend?
E A F# B
Tell me more, tell me more, could she get me a friend?
E A
Eb Ab Bb Ab
It turned colder, that's where it ends
Eb Ab Bb Ab
So I told her we'd still be friends
Eb Ab Bb C
Then we made our true love vow
E A E A
Wonder what she's doing now
D G A B
Summer dreams, ripped at the seams
Em A C# - D
But oh, those summer nights
