Drifters, Under the Boardwalk (1964)
Key: :[A#] (w: Kenny Young, Arthur Resnick)
INTRO: [*B1 x2]
VERSE 1:
Oh the
[A#] sun beats down
and melts the tar upon the
[F] roof
And your
[F] shoes get so hot
you wish your tired feet were fire
[A#] proof
[A#7]
PRE-CHORUS:
Under the
[D#] boardwalk, down by the
[A#] sea
On a
[A#] blanket with my baby
[F] is where I'll
[A#] be
CHORUS:
Under the
[Gm] boardwalk, out of the sun
Under the
[F] boardwalk, we'll be having some fun
Under the
[Gm] boardwalk, people walking above
Under the
[F] boardwalk, we'll be falling love
Under the
[Gm] board-
[Gm]-walk,
[Gm] board-
[Gm]-walk
BREAK: [*R1]
VERSE 2:
From a
[A#] park nearby
happy sounds from a carou-
[F]-sel
You can
[F] almost taste
the hotdogs and french fries they
[A#] sell
