[Intro]
C
 
[Chorus]
C                        F
Summer in the city means cleavage cleavage cleavage
C                              G
And I start to miss you, baby, sometimes          
          C              G              C         F
I've been staying up and drinking in a late night establishment
C                 G
Telling strangers personal things
 
C                          F
Summer in the city, I'm so lonely lonely lonely
C                                             G
So I went to a protest just to rub up against strangers
      C             G            C              F
And I did feel like coming but I also felt like crying
C                           G
It doesn't seem so worth it right now
 
[Verse]
F                                          C
And the castrated ones stand in the corner smoking
F                                     C              G
They want to feel the bulges in their pants start to rise
        C        G               C         F
At the site of a beautiful woman they feel nothing but
C                                            G
Anger, her skin makes them sick in the night nauseaous, nauseaous, nauseaous
 
[Chorus]
C                          F
Summer in the city, I'm so lonely lonely lonely
            C                                             G
I've been hallucinating you, babe, at the backs of other women
      C            G               C             F
And I tap on their shoulder and they turn around smiling
           C                       G
But there's no recognition in their eyes
 
C                           F
Oh summer in the city means cleavage cleavage cleavage
C                                                        G
And don't get me wrong, dear, in general I'm doing quite fine
                    C             G               C                      F
It's just when it's summer in the city, and you're so long gone from the city
   C                 G     C
I start to miss you, baby, sometimes
 
[Instrumental]
 
          C             G
When it's summer in the city
              C                  F
And you're so long gone from the city
C                    G     F
I start to miss you, baby, sometimes
C                    G     F
I start to miss you, baby, sometimes
C                    G     F
I start to miss you, baby, sometimes

The last part "start to miss you baby sometimes" It's C-G-Am, C-G-Am, C-G-and I usually end on C. I also agree with Natey that the Em does sound better, but it works with C as well.

At "late night" and similar points throughout each verse, the C should be an Em. Similarly, at "corner smoking" and "pants" the C should be an Am. Also, each of the "sometimes" in the ending should have an Em before the F, except the last.

Very nice tab... uve done a good job.
