Amaj7                      Bm7
Drive your car down to the sea
C#m7                       F#m7 F#7
All the while you build a scheme
Bm7                   C#m7
Take her hand and walk on with her
Bm7                           E9
Make it real your summer dream

Smell the warm and salty air
See a wave reflect a beam
Stop and find a pretty shell for her
Bm7      E9                A
Make it real your summer dream

Bm7   E9           Amaj7     F#m7
See another couple over there
Bm7        C#7     F#maj7  D#m7
To them an ordinary day
Bm7                       Dm7
Soon you wonder where the time has gone
Bm7                            E9
The sun has almost slipped away

Now it's gone and you're alone
In her eyes you see a gleam
Time has come for you to show your love
Bm7      E9                Amaj7
Make it real, your summer dream

Bm7      E9               Amaj7
Make it real, your summer dream
