That Summer Feeling Chords by Jonathan Richman

_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
[E] That summer feeling, [A] that summer feeling, [E] that summer feeling
_ Folks, [E] when there's things to do, [A] not because you gotta
[E] When you run for love, [A] not because you oughta
[E] When you trust your friends with [A] no reason, nada
[E] This joy I've named [B] shall not be tamed
[F#m] That summer _ [E] feeling's gonna [B] haunt you the rest [E] of your life
Summer feeling, [A] summer feeling, [E] summer feeling
[A] _ _ When [E] the cool of the pond [A] makes you drop down on it
[E] When the smell of the lawn [A] makes you flop down on it
[E] When the teenage car gets [A] the cop down on it
[E] That time is here [B] for one more year
[F#m] That summer feeling's [B] gonna haunt you the rest of [E] your life
Summer feeling, [A] summer _ feeling, [E] summer feeling
[A] _ If you've [E] forgotten what I'm naming
[A] _ _ You're [E] gonna long to reclaim it [B] one day
[F#] You see, that [F#m] summer feeling's [B] gonna haunt you the rest [E] of your life
Summer feeling, [A] summer _ [E] feeling, summer feeling
But if you wait until you're [A] older
_ A [E] sad resentment will smolder one [B] day
And then [F#m] this summer feeling will come [B] haunt you
Then [F#m] that summer feeling will [B] come taunt you
[E]
That [F#m] summer feeling [A] will hurt you [B] later in [E] your life
_ [A] _ I speak of [E] summer feeling
[A] _ _
When [E] the playground that just was [A] all dirt comes hauntin'
[E] And someone who called you [A] a flirt comes tauntin'
[E] It's not that these things [A] alone were appealing
[E] What I'm now revealing [B] is a certain feeling
[F#m] That summer _ [B] feeling's gonna haunt you the rest [E] of your life
Summer feeling, [A] summer feeling, [E] _ summer feeling
What time?
Well, just me!
When the Oldsmobile has [A#] got the top down on it
When the cattle moran has got the drop down on it
When the flat of the [C] land has got the crop down on it
What [F#] I now proclaim is sorta hard to name
But that summer [B] feeling's gonna haunt you the rest [E] of your life
Summer feeling, summer [A] feeling, [E] summer _ feeling
[A] _ But [E] even fourth grade starts [A] looking good, which you hated
[E] And first grade's looking [A] good too, overrated
[E] And you boys long for some [A] little girl that you dated
[E] Do you long for her [B] or the way you were?
[F#m] That summer [B] feeling's gonna haunt you the rest [E] of your life
Summer feeling, summer feeling, _ summer feeling
That _ summer feeling's gonna haunt you, yeah [A] _ Wow! _
[E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [E] _
