[Verse 1]
Em                          C
Like a bottle rocket on the 4th of July
   G                        D
We shot up to heaven in the blink of a summer sky
Em                 C
Time on our hand’s beer in our cups
G                           D
Nights didn't end 'till the sun came creeping up
Em                    C
We sang we laughed we danced
                    G                   D
We had a first-time feeling time of our lives


[Chorus]
        G              C
We were over the moon, over the stars
Em                    D
Over our heads in the back seat of my dad's car
Em                   C              G    D
  Flying high like a seaside roller coa--ster
         G                  C
You were all over me, I was all over you
        Em                     D
We were bare feet, boardwalks, rocky road and tattoos
Em              C                G    D
  But when that summer wind blew col--der
        Em  D   G        G
We were o-o-o-o-o-o-over,
Bm           C   D G   D
     O-o-o-o-o-o-o-ver


[Verse 2]
       G          Em            C
When I see summer steam fogging up a window
           G                          D
I see your finger drawing hearts with little x's and o's
Em                        C
Beach towel kisses on the edge of the dock
         G             D
A cannon ball splash untying that bikini top
Em                             C
The salt, the sand, your lips, your hands
               G                     D
Held onto mine like they'd never let go


[Chorus]
        G              C
We were over the moon, over the stars
Em                    D
Over our heads in the back seat of my dad's car
Em                   C              G    D
  Flying high like a seaside roller coa--ster
         G                  C
You were all over me, I was all over you
        Em                     D
We were bare feet, boardwalks, rocky road and tattoos
Em              C                G    D
  But when that summer wind blew col--der
        Em  D   C    G   D
We were o-o-o-o-o-o-over,

[Solo]
| Em | C | G | D |


[Bridge]
C          Em         A       D  D
Wave after wave keeps rolling in
   G               Em        G       D
Memories crashing, taking me back to way back when


[Chorus]
        G              C
We were over the moon, over that stars
Em                    D               G
Over our heads in the back seat of my dad's car
Em                   C              G    D
  Flying high like a seaside roller coa--ster
         G                  C
You were all over me, I was all over you
        Em                     D
We were bare feet, boardwalks, rocky road and tattoos
Em              C                G   D
  But when that summer wind blew co--lder
        Em  D   G        G
We were o-o-o-o-o-o-over,
      D
And I wish we could start
G   D   C   G
O-o-o-o-o-o-over
