[Intro 1]
(Drums please)
[Am][Bm][E]
[Am][Bm][E]
[Am]Summer, summer,
summer[Bm]time[E]
[Am]Time to sit back and unwind[Bm]
[E](summertime)

[Verse 1]
Here it [Am]is a groove slightly transfo[Bm]rmed
Just a bit of a [E]break from the norm
[Am]Just a little somethin' to break the monotony
Of [Bm]all that hardcore d[E]ance
that has gotten to be
A [Am]little bit out of control, it's cool to dance
But [Bm]what about the groove
that [E]soothes that moves romance
[Am]Give me a soft subtle mix
And [Bm]if ain't broke then do[E]n't try to fix it
[Am]And think of the summers of the past
Ad[Bm]just the bass and let the [E]Alpine blast
[Am]Pop in my CD and let me run a rhyme
And [Bm]put your car on [E]cruise

[Chorus 1]
and lay back 'cause this is
[Am](summertime)
Summer, summer, summer[Bm]time
(ooh, [E]summertime)
[Am]Time to sit back and unwind[Bm]
(time to [E]sit back and un[Am]wind)
Summer, summer, summer[Bm]time
[E](summertime)
[Am]Time to sit back and unwind[Bm]
(time to [E]sit back and un[Am]wind)
Summer, summer, summer[Bm]time
[E](summertime)
[Am]Time to sit back and unwind[Bm]
(time to [E]sit back and...)

[Verse 2]
[Am]School is out and it's a sort of a buzz
[Bm]But back then I didn't reall[E]y know what it was
[Am]But now I see what have of this
The [Bm]way that people re[E]spond
to summer madness
[Am]The weather is hot
and girls are dressin' less
And [Bm]checkin' out the fellas
to tell [E]'em who's best
[Am]Ridin' around in your Jeep or your Benzos
[Bm]Or in your Nissan sitt[E]in' on Lorenzos
[Am]Back in Philly we be out in the park
A [Bm]place called the Plateau
is [E]where everybody go
[Am]Guys out huntin' and girls doin' likewise
[Bm]Honkin' at the honey
in front [E]of you with the light eyes
[Am]She turn around to see
what you beepin' at
[Bm]It's like the summer's a natural[E] aphrodisiac
And [Am]with a pen and pad I compose this rhyme
To [Bm]hit you and get you e[E]quipped

[Chorus 2]
for the summer
[Am]Summer, summer, summertime[Bm]
[E](summertime)
[Am]Time to sit back and unwind[Bm]
(time to [E]sit back and un[Am]wind)
Summer, summer, summer[Bm]time
[E](summertime)
[Am]Time to sit back and unwind[Bm]
(time to [E]sit back and unwind)

[Verse 3]
It's [Am]late in the day
and I ain't been on the court yet
[Bm]Hustle to the mall to [E]get me a short set
[Am]Yeah, I got on sneaks but I need a new pair
'Cause [Bm]basketball courts in the [E]summer
got girls there
[Am]The temperature's about eighty-eight
[Bm]Hop in the water plug [E]just for old times sake
[Am]Break to ya crib
change your clothes once more
'Cause you're in[Bm]vited to a barbecue
that's [E]startin' at four
[Am]Sittin' with your friends as y'all reminisce
About the [Bm]days growin' up
and the [E]first person you kissed
And [Am]as I think back makes me wonder how
The [Bm]smell from a grill could [E]spark up nostalgia
[Am]All the kids playin' out front
Little [Bm]boys messin' 'round
with the [E]girls playing double-dutch
[Am]While the DJ's spinnin' a tune
as the [Bm]old folks dance
at your [E]family reunion
[Am]Then six o'clock rolls around
[Bm]You just finished wipi[E]n' your car down
[Am]It's time to cruise
so you go to the [Bm]summertime hangout
It [E]looks like a car show
[Am]Everybody come lookin' real fine
[Bm]Fresh from the barber shop or
[E]fly from the beauty salon
[Am]Every moment frontin' and maxin'
[Bm]Chillin' in the car they spent [E]all day waxin'
[Am]Leanin' to the side
but you can't speed through
[Bm]Two miles an hour, so [E]everybody sees you
[Am]There's an air of love and of happiness
And [Bm]this is the Fresh Prince's
[E]new definition of summer

[Chorus 3]
[Am]
Summer, summer, summer[Bm]time
[E](summertime)
[Am]Time to sit back and unwind[Bm]
[E](and un[Am]wind)
Summer, summer,
summer[Bm]time[E]
[Am]Time to sit back and unwind[Bm]
[E]
[Am]Summer, summer,
summer[Bm]time[E]
[Am]Time to sit back and unwind[Bm]
[E](and un[Am]wind)
Summer, summer, summer[Bm]time[E]
[Am]Time to sit back and unwind[Bm]
[E]
[Repeat and fade]
