A summer smoker underground

It's just a dugout that my dad built

To learn design and study      overseas

Do you have a steady boyfriend

                                  Em7 E7 Esus4 E7

Cause honey I've been watching you

                        A6 Em/A

I hear you're mad about Brubeck

I like your eyes, I like him too

And stay together all night long

And when I really get to know you

                                               Em7 E7 Esus4 E7

We'll open up the doors and climb into the dawn

Amaj7             Am#7/D

Confess your passion your secret fear

Prepare to meet the challenge of the new frontier

A/E   Bm/E    A/E  Bm/E
