CHORUS:
C Dm
Don't you ever leave me sad and blue
G7 C
Don't you ever tell me we are through
Dm
Don't you ever hurt me; if you do
G7 C
Everything they're saying will be true
Verse 1:
F G7 C
People say it's just a summer romance
F Dm G7
People say our love won't last for long
C F
They're so sure we will part
Dm G7
But I know deep in my heart that they are
C F
wrong
(I don't care what the people say)
C F C
So wrong
(I don't really care what the people say)
(Start verse 2: People say...)
Verse 2:
People say it's just the way the stars shine
And it really isn't love at all
But each time that we kiss
I'm so sure we'll be like this summer, winter, and
fall
(I don't care what the people say)
Wo wo wo
(I don't really care what the people say)
(chorus)
Verse 3:
People say it's just a summer romance
But I know our love is here to stay
Let's go stroll by the sea
'Cause it doesn't bother me what the people
say
(I don't care what the people say)
What the people say
(I don't really care what the people say)
...and fade
