Verse 1:
[Notes: 1) I believe that the guitar is capoed at the third fret, in which case the chord progression transposes to the stock folkie riff Am-Am/G-D9/F#-Fmaj7-E. This is further confirmed by the voicings of the F and Bb chords in the chorus, which sound like root-position D and G capoed up. 2) The electric piano plays a variation of the second part of the instrumental break (q.v.) on the first four lines of the verse.]
Cm Cm/Bb Hot town, summer in the city F9/A [x03543] Abmaj7 G Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty Cm Cm/Bb Been down, isn't it a pity F9/A Abmaj7 G Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city
G G7/B All around, people looking half dead Cm C Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match head
Chorus (w/autoharp):
F Bb But at night it's a different world F Bb Go out and find a girl F Bb Come-on come-on and dance all night F Bb Despite the heat it'll be alright
Dm G And babe, don't you know it's a pity Dm G That the days can't be like the nights Dm G In the summer, in the city Dm G In the summer, in the city
Verse 2:
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
