Intro
[Dm] [Bb] x4
Verse 1
[Dm] [Dm/C] [Dm/B] [Bb] [A]
Hot town, summer in the city; back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
[Dm] [Dm/C] [Dm/B] [Bb] [A]
Been down, isn't it a pity; doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
[A] [A7/G]
All around, people looking half dead
[Dm/F] [D7/F#]
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
Chorus
[G] [C]
But at night it's a different world
[G] [C]
Go out and find a girl
[G] [C]
Come-on come-on and dance all night
[G] [C]
Despite the heat it'll be alright
[Em] [A]
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
[Em] [A]
That the days can't be like the nights
[Em] [A]
In the summer, in the city
[Em] [A]
In the summer, in the city

Verse 2
[Dm] [Dm/C] [Dm/B] [Bb] [A]
Cool town, evening in the city; Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
[Dm] [Dm/C] [Dm/B] [Bb] [A]
Cool cat, looking for a kitty; Gonna look in every corner of the city
[A] [A7/G]
Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop
[Dm/F] [D7/F#]
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop
Chorus
[G] [C]
But at night it's a different world
[G] [C]
Go out and find a girl

Come-on come-on and dance all night
