intro:
Am F G x3
Am F G
Another long summer's come and gone,
Am F G
I don't know why it always ends this way,
Am F G
The boardwalk's quiet and the carnival rides,
F G
are as empty as my broken heart tonight,
F C
But I close my eyes and one more time,
G
I'm spinnin' around and you're holding on tightly,
F C
The words came out, I kissed your mouth,
G
No 4th of July has ever burned so brightly,
F C
You had to go, I understand,
G
But you promised you'd be back again,
F G
And so I wonder round this town,
Til summer comes around.
Am F G x2

Am F G
I got a job workin' at the old park pier,
Am F G
And every summer now for 5 long years,
Am F G
I grease the gears, fix the lights, tighten bolts, straighten the tracks,
F G
And I count the days til you just might come back,
F C
But then I close my eyes and one more time,
G
I'm spinnin' around and you're holding on tightly,
F C
The words came out, I kissed your mouth,
G
No 4th of July has ever burned so brightly,
F C
You had to go, I understand,
G
But you swore that you'd be back again,
F G
And so Im frozen in this town,
Til summer comes around.
During Solo Play:
Am F G x5
F C
Oh Then I close my eyes and you and I,
G
Stuck on the ferris wheel rockin' with the motion,
F C
And hand in hand we cried and laughed,
G
Knowin' that the earth belonged to us, girl, if only for a moment,
F C G
Baby I'd be back again, you whispered in my ear,
F G
But now the winter wind is the only sound,
F G
And everything is closin' down,
Til summer comes around,
