[Verse 1]
D/F# G A D
It was our first week at Myrtle Beach where it all began
D/F# G
It was a hundred and two, nothin’ to do
A D
Man it was hot so we jumped in
D/F# G
We were summertime sippin’, sippin’
A D
Sweet tea kissin’ off of your lips
D/F# G
T-shirt drippin’, drippin’ wet
A D
How could I forget?

[Chorus]
G D/F#
Watchin’ that blonde hair swing
A Bm
To every song I’d sing
G D
You were California beautiful
A Bm
I was playin’ everything but cool
G D/F#
I can still hear that sound
A Bm
Of every wave crashin’ down
G D A
Like the tears we cried that day we had to leave
D/F# G A
It was everything we wanted it to be

The summer of 19 you and me

[Verse 2]
D/F# G A
We had our first dance in the sand, it was
D
One hell of a souvenir
D/F# G
Tangled up, so in love
A D
You said, “Let’s just stay right here”
D/F# G
‘Til the sun starts creepin’, creepin’ up
A D
Right then I knew
D/F# G
Just what you were thinkin’, thinkin’ of
A D
When I looked at you

[Chorus]
G D/F#
Watchin that blonde hair swing
A Bm
To every song I’d sing
G D
You were California beautiful
A Bm
I was playin’ everything but cool
G D/F#
I can still hear that sound
A Bm
Of every wave crashin’ down
G D A
Like the tears we cried that day we had to leave
D/F# G A
It was everything we wanted it to be

The summer of 19 you and me (Yeaaaahhh Ooohhhhhh)

Beautiful, beautiful

G D/F#
Watchin’ that blonde hair swing
A Bm
To every song I sing
G D
You were California beautiful

I was playing everything but cool

Of every wave crashing down
