      F#/A#          B               C#
It was our first week at Myrtle Beach where it
      F#
all began
         F#/A#             B
It was a hundred and two, nothin' to do
           C#         F#
Man it was hot so we jumped in
        F#/A#              B
We were summertime sippin', sippin'
C#                F#
Sweet tea kissin' off of your lips
F#/A#            B
T-shirt drippin', drippin' wet
C#              F#
How could I forget?

Chorus:
                B          F#/A#
Watchin' that blonde hair swing
          C#       D#m
To every song I'd sing
          B          F#
You were California beautiful
       C#            D#m
I was playin' everything but cool
             B        F#/A#
I can still hear that sound
          C#           D#m
Of every wave crashin' down
          B                  F#             C#
Like the tears we cried that day we had to leave
       F#/A#          B            C#
It was everything we wanted it to be

The summer of 19 you and me

We had our first dance in the sand
It was one hell of a souvenir
Tangled up, so in love
You said, "Let's just stay right here"

'Til the sun starts creepin', creepin' up
Right then, I knew
Just what you were thinkin', thinkin' of
When I looked at you

Chorus

        F#/A# B C# F#
you and me

                B          F#/A#
Watchin' that blonde hair swing
         C#        D#m
To every song I'd sing
          B          F#
You were California beautiful
C#
Beautiful, beautiful

Chorus:
Watching that blonde hair swing
To every song I'd sing
You were California beautiful (Beautiful)
I was playin' everything but cool
I can still hear that sound
Of every wave crashin' down (Of every wave
crashin' down)
Like the tears we cried that day we had to leave
It was everything we wanted it to be
The summer of 19 you and me
Mmm

First week, Myrtle Beach
Where it all began
