C C/B Am
She's been afraid of the Cuisinart
C C/B Am
Since nineteen seventy seven
C C/B Am
Now when she opens up the house
E7 F | F G |
Well, she won't set foot in the kitchen
C C/B Am
Her brother's dating an architect
C C/B Am
They're coming up for the weekend
C C/B Am
He never gave her the proper respect
E7 F
But she still meets the ferry to greet them
F C E7 Am

Oh at the summer place we've got the space if you've got the time

Mi-i-i-ind, mi-i-i-ind, mi-i-i-ind, mi-i-i-ind
C C/B Am
She ran away back in '78
C C/B Am
Just down the beach to the neighbors'
C C/B Am
They brought her back after sunset
E7 F | F G |
Her dad said, "Don't do me any favors"
C C/B Am
Her mom would sit on the patio
C C/B Am
She said she needed the sea air
C C/B Am
She'd drink a fifth of Seagrams
E7 F
And then she'd sink down into her deck chair
F C E7 Am

At fifteen shoplifting

Was the only game she liked to play

At forty she's so bored she

Thinks about it then decides to pay

And still she can't help feeling

She took a handful of mushrooms

She spent the night in the hospital room

So the doctors could observe her

Oh at the summer place we've got the space you should drop on by

At the summer place the injuries fade but the memories last a life-
