D#
There's an A-frame house on the
corner where my road ends
G#
In the summertime when I was young
I was there everyday and weekend
D#
Flirtin' with the girls that lived down the street
Leanin' in close,
I can feel her heartbeat
          G#
Her heartbeat,
Her heartbeat

Chorus:
        D#
Summer love
In the bed of a truck
With the cab lights glowing like
                       G#
a spotlight on both of us
In a field full of grass
Lightning bugs lighting up the night light
    A#
A chandelier in her eyes
                                        G#
Really don't like how the time flies by us
                       A#
I'm missin' the taste of
        D#
Summer love
        G#
Summer love

There's an Indian head painted blue and red
On our football field
In my hometown when I drive by
Can't explain the way I feel
It takes me back to a simpler time
When we lived off dreams
And the gas to drive
'Round here
Around here

Chorus:
Summer love in the bed of a truck
With the cab lights glowin' like a spotlight
On both of us in a field full of grass
Lightnin' bugs lightin' up the night like
A chandelier in her eyes
Really don't like how the time flies by us
I'm missin' the taste of

        Fm                              G#
Summer love in the back of a 4-wheel drive
  Fm                                    G#
Staring at the stars with her hands in mine

Chorus:
Summer love in the bed of a truck
Cab lights glowin' like a spotlight
On both of us in a field full of grass
Lightnin' bugs lightin' up the night like
A chandelier in her eyes
Really don't like how the time flies by us

Summer love in the bed of a truck
With the cab lights glowin' like a spotlight
On both of us in a field full of grass
Lightnin' bugs lightin' up the night like
A chandelier in her eyes
Really don't like how the time flies by us
I'm missin' the taste of
Summer love
Summer love
