       G#m            F#m
He was yours, in the summertime, yeah
           E       B
About ten years ago
 E                         C#m
He promised you to stay forever
          G#m
Live with you
         F#m
It's so bittersweet now
           E              B
When you know what you lost

Chorus:
E                                   C#m
Donnie was the boy you always wanted by your side
F#m                                         B
Donnie was the boy your girlfriends fell for one
by one
E                                    C#m
Donnie was the boy you always wanted day and night
F#m                                      B
But Donnie had a girlfriend: tender, sexy, sweet
and blonde

        C#m          B  E
In the summer time, yeah
        C#m
In the summer time, yeah
 B         E
Life was easy
        C#m               B     E G#
On the beach you had him long ago

He's always on your mind
The season changes
Years went by
But that chapter of love stays unfinished for you
Keep on dancing through your new life
Maybe, make a move
Make him see you again
As the flower you are

Chorus

In the summer time, yeah
In the summer time, life was easy
On the beach you had him long ago
In the summer time, yeah
