1. Walkin' along beneath the lights of that miracle mile,

                     D                                         G

    me and Mary makin' our way into the night.

                     D

    You can hear the cries from the carnival rides

            G

    the pinball bells and the ski ball slides,

       D                                                    G

    watchin' the summer sun fall out of sight.

                       A                            - G

    There's a warm wind comin' in,      from off of the ocean

                       D                                                     G

    makin' it's way past the hotel walls to fill the street.

       D                                         G

    Mary is holdin' both of her shoes in her hand,

                    D                       A                          D

    said she likes to feel the sand beneath her feet.

 

                     D                                    G

And in the mornin' I'm leavin' makin my way back to Cleveland,

          D                                           G

so tonight I hope, that I will do just fine.

       D                                         G          - D         A            D     - G

And I don't see, how you could ever be,      anything but mine.

 

                     D                                      G

2. There's a local band playin' at the seaside pavilion,

                     D                                      G

    and I got just enough cash to get us in.

            D                                         G

    And as we are dancin' Mary's wrappin' her arms around me

                      D                                                G

    and I can feel the sting of summer on my skin.

                 A                             G

    In the midst of the music, I tell her I love her,

                   D                                             G

    we both laugh, 'cause we know it isn't true.

                     D                                             G

    Oh, but ,Mary, there's a summer drawin' to an end tonight,

                               D              A                     D

    and there's so much that I long to do to you.

 

                     D                                    G

And in the mornin' I'm leavin' makin my way back to Cleveland,

          D                                           G

so tonight I hope, that I will do just fine.

       D                                         G          - D         A            D

And I don't see, how you could ever be,      anything but mine.
