Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Credit to niuguitarman for the chords to the original, I've merely transposed it
and added in the extra bits/key changes from Cocker's version. You could play it
as Am with a capo on the 5th fret if you so wished, transpose it 5 steps down
using controls if applicable.
[Intro]
Dm A# (repeat)
[Verse 1]
Dm Dm/C G/B A# A
Hot town, summer in the city; back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Dm Dm/C G/B A# A
Been down, isn't it a pity; doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
A A7
All around, people looking half dead
Dm D
Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
[Chorus]
G C
But at night it's a different world
G C
Go out and find a girl
G C
Come-on come-on and dance all night
G C
Despite the heat it'll be alright
Em A
And babe, don't you know it's a pity
Em A
That the days can't be like the nights
Em A
In the summer, in the city
Em A
In the summer, in the city
[Link]
Dm A# (repeat)
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
Cool town, evening in the city; Dressing so fine and looking so pretty
Cool cat, looking for a kitty; Gonna look in every corner of the city
Till I'm wheezing like a bus stop
Running up the stairs, gonna meet you on the rooftop
[Chorus]

[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
