Under The Boadrwalk

Under The Boardwalk
By Arthur Resnick and Kenny Young

Another one from my childhood, actually written about my hometown Long Beach, NY

I play this on guitar or ukulele in C or E with a calypso beat.

C                                                      G7
Oh when the sun beats down and burns the tar up on the roof
                                                        C         C7
And your shoes get so hot you wish your tired feet were fire proof
          F                      C
Under the boardwalk, down by the sea, yeah
                       G7               C
On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be

           Am
(Under the boardwalk) out of the sun
           C
(Under the boardwalk) we'll be havin' some fun
           Am
(Under the boardwalk) people walking above
           C
(Under the boardwalk) we'll be falling in love
          Am         Am
Under the boardwalk, boardwalk

In the park you hear the happy sound of a carousel
Mm-mm, you can almost taste the hot dogs and french fries they sell
Under the boardwalk, down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be

(Under the boardwalk) out of the sun
(Under the boardwalk) we'll be havin' some fun
(Under the boardwalk) people walking above
(Under the boardwalk) we'll be falling in love
Under the boardwalk, boardwalk
