[G]Roll [G]out [D7]those [G]lazy, hazy, crazy days of [A7]summer,
those days of [D7]soda and pretzels and [G]beer
Roll [G]out [D7]those [G]lazy, hazy, crazy days of [A7]summer,
dust off the [D7]sun and moon and sing a song of [G]cheer


Just fill your [B7]basket full of sandwiches and weenies
then lock the house up now you’re [Em]set
And on the [A7]beach you’ll see the [Em7]girls in their bi[A7]kinis,
as cute as ever but they never get them [D7]wet


Roll [G]out [D7]those [G]lazy, hazy, crazy days of [A7]summer,
those days of [D7]soda and pretzels and [G]beer
Roll [G]out [D7]those [G]lazy, hazy, crazy days of [A7]summer,
you’ll wish that [D7]summer could always be [G]here


Don’t have to [B7]tell a girl and feller ‘bout a drive in
or some romantic movie [Em]scene
Why from the [A7]moment that those [Em7]lovers start a[A7]rriving
You’ll see more kissing in the cars than on the [D7]screen


Roll [G]out [D7]those [G]lazy, hazy, crazy days of [A7]summer,
those days of [D7]soda and pretzels and [G]beer
Roll [G]out [D7]those [G]lazy, hazy, crazy days of [A7]summer,
you’ll wish that [D7]summer could always be [G]here


And there’s the [B7]good old fashioned picnic,
and they still go, always will go any [Em]time
And there will [A7]always be a [Em7]moment that can [A7]thrill so,
as when the old quartet sings out “Sweet Ade[D7]line”


Roll [G]out [D7]those [G]lazy, hazy, crazy days of [A7]summer,
those days of [D7]soda and pretzels and [G]beer
Roll [G]out [D7]those [G]lazy, hazy, crazy days of [A7]summer,
you’ll wish that [D7]summer could always be [G]here


you’ll wish that [D7]summer could always be [G]here
you’ll wish that [D7]summer could always be [G]here
