E
Summertime is finally here
That ole ball park man is back in gear
       A
Out on 49, man I can see the lights
E
School's out the night's roll in
Man just like a long lost friend
           A
You ain't seen in a while,
you can't help but smile

           E       F#              A
And it's two bare feet on the dashboard
       B
Young love and an old Ford
E                   F#
Cheap shades and a tattoo and
       A       B
And a Yoo-Hoo bottle on the floorboard

Chorus:
E        F#             A
Perfect song on the radio
       B                       A
Sing along cause it's one we know
A
It's a smile, it's a kiss, it's a sip of wine
            E  F# A
It's summertime
             E  F# A  B
Sweet summertime

Temperature says 93
Down at the Deposit and Guarantee
But that swimming hole
It's nice and cold
Bikini bottoms underneath
But the boys' hearts still skip a beat
When them girls shimmy off
Them old cutoffs

And it's two bare feet on the dashboard
Young love and an old Ford
Cheap shades and a tattoo
And a Yoo-Hoo bottle on the floorboard

Chorus

D                     A/C#
The more things change
the more they stay the same
F#m              E
Don't matter how old you are
          A
Man you know what I'm talking bout
 B
yeah baby when you got...

Two bare feet on the dashboard
Young love and an old Ford
Cheap shades and a tattoo
And a Yoo-Hoo bottle Rollin on the floorboard

Chorus
