Standard (EADGBE)

They love you or they hate you

But they will never let you be

They thrill you or sedate you

But they will never let you see

In the evening sun

In the evening sun

Encourage and deranged you

Watch you walking scared alone

Despite intimidation

Pleased to watch you dance along

In the evening sun

In the evening sun

Go your separate way now

 Someday you'll come back and I'll be dreaming I was sunburned

I don't want to break your heart in

 Break your heart in two halves

 Keep one half and give one half to me

I like the summer - miss the summer

Tell me, what'd you do? Nothing? Me too...

All actors they're pretending

And singers they sometimes lie

Oh kids are always honest

Cause they don't think they're ever gonna die

You're the prettiest smartest captain of the team

I love you more than being seventeen

In the evening sun

In the evening sun
