[VERSE]
G F
I was a little too tall, coulda' used a few pounds
C F
Tight pants, points, hardly renown
G F
She was a black haired beauty with big dark eyes
C F
And points all her own sittin' way up high
G F C F
way up firm and high
G F
Out past the cornfields, where the woods got heavy
C F
Out in the backseat of my sixty Chevy
G F C
Workin on mysteries without any clues
[CHORUS]
Em D
Working on our night moves
C D Em D C
Tryin' to make some front page drive-in news
D Em D C
Workin' on our night moves
G F C F
In the summertime hmm
G F C F
In the sweet, summertime
[VERSE]
G F
We weren't in love, oh no, far from it
C F
We weren't searching for some pie in the sky summit
G F
We were just young and restless and bored
C F
Living by the sword
G F
And we'd steal away every chance we could
C F
To the back room, alley, or the trusty woods
G F
I used her, she used me but neither one cared
C
We were getting our share
[CHORUS]
Em D
Working on our night moves
C D Em D C
Tryin' to make some front page drive-in news
D Em D C
Workin' on our night moves
G F C F
In the summertime hmm

In the sweet, summertime, summertime
