Key: :[C] (w: Kenny Young, Arthur Resnick)
INTRO: [*B1 x2]
VERSE 1:
Oh the
[C] sun beats down
and melts the tar upon the

And your
[G] shoes get so hot
you wish your tired feet were fire
[C] proof
[C7]
PRE-CHORUS:
Under the
[F] boardwalk, down by the
[C] sea
On a
[C] blanket with my baby
[G] is where I'll
[C] be
CHORUS:
Under the
[Am] boardwalk, out of the sun
Under the
[G] boardwalk, we'll be having some fun
Under the
[Am] boardwalk, people walking above
Under the
[G] boardwalk, we'll be falling love
Under the
[Am] board-
[Am]-walk,
[Am] board-
[Am]-walk
BREAK: [*R1]
VERSE 2:
From a
[C] park nearby
happy sounds from a carou-
[G]-sel
You can
[G] almost taste
the hotdogs and french fries they
[C] sell
