[E] Folks, 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 [A] with 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

[A] I speak of [E] summer feeling
[A]
[E] When the playground that just [A] was all dirt comes [E] hauntin'
And someone who called you a [A] flirt comes [E] tauntin'
It's not that these things [A] alone were appealing
[E] What I'm now revealing [B] is a certain feeling
That summer feeling's gonna haunt you the rest [E] of your life
Summer feeling, [A] summer feeling, [E] summer feeling
What time?
Well, just me!
[E] When the Oldsmobile has got [A#] the top down on it
When the cattle moran has got the drop down on it
When [A] the flat of the land has got the crop down on it
What I now proclaim is sorta hard to name
[F#] But that summer feeling's [B] gonna haunt you the rest [E] of your life
Summer feeling, [B] summer feeling, [E] summer feeling
[A] But even [E] 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
