Summertime Chords

New Kids on the Block - Summertime
 
 
This is an acoustic version of the latest song by New Kids on the Block.  It may not be
but it's the best I came up with by playin around with a few chords and a capo.  Enjoy.
 
Capo on 4th fret.
 
<Verse 1>
       C                      Am
Do you remember, or should I rewind?
        Dm                        G
To that summer when you caught my eye.
            C                     Am
I played it cool, the weather was hot,
            Dm                      G
You had the beauty and the beach on lock.
           C                       Am
With your flip flops, half shirt, short shorts, mini skirt,
Dm                     G
Walkin on the beach so pretty
          C                         Am
You wasnt lookin for a man when you saw me in the sand,
        Dm                        G
But you fell for the boy from the city.
 
<Prechorus>
             Am              Em
I was like, "hey, girl, can I get your number"
Am                 Em
I remember what you told me too,
Am               Em
"Don't call after ten"
                    Dm
But you know that I did,
                       G
'Cause I couldn't stop thinkin' 'bout you.
 
<Chorus>
  C                      Dm
I think about you in the summertime,
G
And all the good times we had, baby,
C                      Dm
Been a few years and I can't deny,
G
The thought of you still makes me crazy,
C                        Dm
I think about you in the summertime,
G                                          Dm
I'm sittin' here in the sun with you on my mind.
              G
You are, my summertime
 
<Verse 2>
       C                    Am
Do you remember, I'll never forget,
              Dm               G
Touchin' your body all soakin' wet,
              C                     Am
The water was cool, The feelin' was hot,
           Dm                  G
Kissin' on you while the ocean rocked.
        C                   Am
In your strapless sundress, Kickin' back, no stress,
   Dm             G
As long as we was together,
               C                          Am
'Cause we were feelin' young love, And we couldn't get enough.
        Dm              G
Baby, I could reminisce forever.
 
<Prechorus>
                  Am                   Em
And now I'm like, Hey, girl, don't you know I miss it,
Am                  Em
And I wonder if you miss it too,
Am                     Em
Never thought it would end 'til it did,
         Dm                    G
Now, I'm here and I can't stop thinkin' 'bout you.
 
<Chorus>
  C                      Dm
I think about you in the summertime,
G
And all the good times we had, baby,
C                      Dm
Been a few years and I can't deny,
G
The thought of you still makes me crazy,
C                        Dm
I think about you in the summertime,
G                                          Dm
I'm sittin' here in the sun with you on my mind.
              G
You are, my summertime
 
<Breakdown>
C             Am
Summer ended, Winter started,
Dm             G                 C                  Am
It got colder, When we parted ways, (I like this part.)
                Dm                       G
As the seasons change. (Bring it forward, bring it back)
C              Am
Winter melted, Spring I felt it,
Dm              G               C                    Am
Summertime will never be the same, (Without you. My summertime.)
        Dm           G
My summertime.
 
<Chorus>
  C                      Dm
I think about you in the summertime,
G
And all the good times we had, baby,
C                      Dm
Been a few years and I can't deny,
G
The thought of you still makes me crazy,
C                        Dm
I think about you in the summertime,
G                                          Dm
I'm sittin' here in the sun with you on my mind.
              G
You are, my summertime
