    Counting days as if I was in AA
    F#m
    Since you walked away from all the love we made
    Em
    In the skyline of my life you were a sky scraper
    Em6                                                  Bbm
    Looking up at you, I felt so validated               Goodbye New York in the summer time
    Like the summer we were so short and sweet           long hair, short skirt, she's a friend of mine
    Steam was rising, hypnotizing on these sticky streets Goodbye New York in the summer time
    Don't need the Hampton's when I have you here beside me, long hair, short skirt she's a friend of mine
    Your green eyes are my ocean breeze       Bbm        Goodbye New York in the summer time

              Picnic blankets spread out on the Great Lawn
              Rosé, tan lines, music, all my cares were gone
              Come the fall my boots and skirt says it all
              Smart and sexy, but I know that you will never call
              Try not to think of you but you have a way of creepin' up
              Smokin on your fire escape thought this was love
              Drip, drip where did that water come from?
              In the summer, we can all be young and dumb
              Chorus
              Took vacations riding on the subway
              Every stop was our secret getaway
              Don't need the Acropolis, this metropolis was our playground
              The steps of The Met to the DUMBO Merry-go-round
              This metro card only got us so far
              The rest I had to make up strummin on my guitar
              You kissed me all the way from Harlem to Bowery
              Hopin' the snow melts away these memories
         E    Chorus
