Zach Bryan - Summertimes Close

[Intro]
C F C F C G C C

[Verse 1]
C F C
Well, I’ve had cold and humid mornings on city streets and back porches
G C
But I ain’t never breathed a breath as fresh as you
C
And I’ve seen children playin’ on the coastlines
F C
Under the white lines, atop the blue tides
F C G C
But I ain’t ever been baptized in water as cool as you
C
And the law don’t ever come back here and I
F C
Reckon they don’t try
F C
I just put some beer on ice
G C
Let’s just dance for a moment or two

[Chorus]
Am G C F
‘Cause you’re the fire of Carolina and Oklahoma too
Am G C F
The stars in St. Louis ain’t burnin’ bright as you
Am G C F
You’re the waves crashin’ down on the Eastern Coast
Am G C F
When the day’s coolin’ off and the summertime’s closed
Am G C F
I lost faith in the world a long time ago

[Instrumental]
C F C F C G C C

[Verse 2]
C
We’d always ride those back roads back when
F C
You got sick
F C
Roll the windows down
G C
Just for the hell of it
C
You always acted baptized
F C
Every time we hit the coast
F C
Bandana tan line on your forehead
G C
So the tourists didn’t know

[Chorus]
Am G C F
‘Cause you’re the fire of Carolina and Oklahoma too
Am G C F
The stars in St. Louis ain’t burnin’ bright as you
Am G C F
You’re the waves crashin’ down on the Eastern Coast
Am G C F
When the day’s coolin’ off and the summertime’s closed
Am G C F
I lost faith in the world a long time ago
Am G C F
My blood-rush to the heart, you were my last hope

[Instrumental]
C F C F C G C C

[Outro]
C
And the law don’t ever come back here and I
F C
Reckon they don’t try
F C
I just put some beer on ice
G C
And tonight I’m dancin’ for two
