Summer The First Time

INTRO:  B A E B


#1.
B        A                  E
It was a hot afternoon, the last day
 of June,
         B         F#m     B F#m
and  the sun was a demon.
    A                       E
The clouds were afraid, one ten in 
the shade,
        B            F#m      B F#m
and the pavement was steamin'.

#2.
  A                     E
I told Billy Ray in his red 
Chevrolet,
         B             F#m      B 
I needed time for some thinkin'.
F#m

      A                      E
I was just walking by when I looked 
in her eye,
      B            F#m      B  F#m
and I swore it was winkin'.

CHORUS:
D                           
She was thirty-one, and I was 
  Bm
seventeen,
C#m                               
I knew nothing about love, she 
  F#m
knew everything.
    D                             
But I sat down beside her on that 
Bm
front porch swing,

    C#7                            
and wondered what the coming night 
      F#m   B
would bring.

#3.
    A                        
The sun closed her eyes as it 
 E
climbed in the skies,
       B          F#m     B F#m
and it started to swelter.
    A                       E
The sweat trickled down the front of
 her gown,
  B                F#m      B F#m
I thought it would melt her.

#4.
    A                        E
She threw back her hair like I 
wasn't there,
    B           F#m    B F#m
she sipped on a Julep.
    A                          E
Her shoulders were bare, and I tried
 not to stare,
       B             F#m       B F#m
when I looked at her two lips.

CHORUS:#2:
    D                              
And when she looked at me, I heard 
    Bm
her softly say,
   C#m                             
'I know you're young, you don't 
          F#m
know what to do or say.
    D                              
But stay with me until the sun has 
Bm
gone away,
    C#7                         
and I will chase the boy in you 
F#m   B F#m   B F#m   B
away.
F#m                          D
And then she smiled, then we talked 
for a while,
       C#m                      F#
and we walked for a mile to the sea.
   F#m                      D
We sat on the sand, and the boy took
 her hand,
       C#m                   F#
but he saw the sun rise as a man.

D  Bm  C#7  F#m (x2)  B

#5.
    A                        E
Ten years have gone by since I 
looked in her eyes,
        B      F#m      B  F#m
but the memory lingers.
     A                      E
I go back in my mind to the very 
first time,
         B            F#m      B F#m
feel the touch of her fingers.

OUTRO:

It was a hot afternoon, the last day
 of June,
        B         F#m      B  F#m
and the sun was a demon...
