[Verse 1]
E                     F#          B
  They love you or they hate you,   
                    E    D#m  C#m
but they will never let you be    
E                    F#          B
  They thrill you or sedate you,   
                    E    D#m   C#m
but they will never let you see

[Verse 2]
E                F#           B
  Encourage and deranged you,  
                    E   D#m  C#m
watch you walking scared alone
E               F#      B
  Despite intimidation,  
                      E    D#m  C#m
pleased to watch you dance alone

[Bridge]
A                 E         G                  C
Go your separate way now, someday you'll come back and
        A               E         G                C
I'll be dreaming I was sunburned, I don't want to break your heart in,
A                    E          G                   C
Break your heart in two halves, keep one half and give one half to me,
A                   E                 G                   C
 I like the summer - miss the summer, Tell me, what'd you do? 
               E
Nothing? Me too...

[Verse 3]
E                      F#        B
  All actors they're pretending,  
                      E    D#m    C#m
and singers they will sometimes lie
E                       F#       B
  Oh kids they're always honest,  
                                E     D#m    C#m
‘cause they don't think they're ever gonna die
E                                F#                   B
  You're the prettiest, smartest captain of the team,  
                     E     D#m    C#m
I love you more than being seventeen

[Chorus 3]
Amaj7   Am6  Dmaj7  Ddim    Amaj7
In~~    the~ eve~~~ning~~~   sun
Dmaj7   Ddim Amaj7  Am6      E
In~~    the~ eve~~~ning~~~   sun
Dmaj7   Ddim Amaj7  Am6      E
In~~    the~ eve~~~ning~~~   sun
