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

And your
[D] shoes get so hot
you wish your tired feet were fire
[G] proof
[G7]
PRE-CHORUS:
Under the
[C] boardwalk, down by the
[G] sea
On a
[G] blanket with my baby
[D] is where I'll
[G] be
CHORUS:
Under the
[Em] boardwalk, out of the sun
Under the
[D] boardwalk, we'll be having some fun
Under the
[Em] boardwalk, people walking above
Under the
[D] boardwalk, we'll be falling love
Under the
[Em] board-
[Em]-walk,
[Em] board-
[Em]-walk
BREAK: [*R1]
VERSE 2:
From a
[G] park nearby
happy sounds from a carou-
[D]-sel
You can
[D] almost taste
the hotdogs and french fries they
[G] sell
