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