[Intro] C Fadd9 C Fadd9 C Fadd9 [Verse]
C      Fadd9                       C                 C  G/B
Sandy, fireworks are hailing over Little Eden tonight

Am                  Am7
Forcing the light into all those stony faces 

     Gsus4                 G
Left stranded on this warm July

        C                          Fadd9
Down in town the circuit's full of switchblade lovers 

   C
So fast so shiny so sharp

G/B    Am                    Am7
As the wizards play down on Pinball Way 

Gsus4                     G
On the boardwalk way past dark

        F                          G
And the boys from the casino dance with their shirts open 

    C              G/B    Am
Like Latin lovers on the shore

                Gsus4           G                   Gsus4  G
Chasing all them silly New York virgins by the score
[Chorus 1]
Csus4 C        Csus4   C        Gsus4 G  Gsus4  G
San...dy the aurora is rising behind  us

     Csus4 C          Csus4    C       F
This pier  lights our carnival life forever

    Csus4     C         Csus4 C   Gsus4          G                  F
Oh, Love me tonight for I     may never see you again, hey Sandy girl

F  G       C   Csus4  C
    My, my baby
F G C F C [Verse]
        C                 Fadd9
Now the greasers ah, they tramp the streets or get busted 

    C                              G/B
For sleeping on the beach all night

     Am
Them boys in their high heels 

               Gsus4             G
Ah Sandy their skins are so white

    C                                      Fadd9
And me I just got tired of hanging in them dusty arcades 

C
Banging them pleasure machines

G/B          Am
Chasing them factory girls underneath the boardwalk 

               Gsus4                   G
Where they all promise to unsnap their jeans

                  F                        G
And you know that tilt-a-whirl down on the south beach drag

      C                       G/B       Am
I got on it last night and my shirt got caught

         Gsus4           G        Gsus4                 G
And they kept me spinning, didn't think I'd ever get off
[Chorus 2]
    Csus4 C        Csus4   C        Gsus4 G  Gsus4  G
Oh, San...dy the aurora is rising behind  us

     Csus4 C          Csus4    C           F
This pier  lights our carnival life on the water

         Csus4               C              Csus4    C             Gsus4  G
Running, laughing 'neath the boardwalk, oh, with the boss' daughter

                 F
I remember Sandy girl, 

G              C   Csus4  C
Na na na na na Baby
F G C F C [Verse]
 C           (Fadd9)                        C             C  C/B
Sandy that waitress I was seeing lost her desire for me

  Am
I spoke with her last night  

                                 Gsus4          G
She said she wont set herself on fire for me anymore

              C                
She work that joint under the boardwalk

        Fadd9
She was always the girl you saw 

                 C
Bopping down the beach with the radio

             G/B                Am
The kids say last night she was dressed like a star
In one of them cheap little seaside bars
                      Gsus4                    G
I saw her parked with lover boy out on the Kokomo

              F                            G
D'ya hear the cops finally busted Madame Marie 

            C        G/B              Am
For telling fortunes better than they do

Gsus4                 G
For me this boardwalk life's through, baby

Gsus4                        G
You ought to quit this scene too
[Chorus 3]
Csus4 C        Csus4   C        Gsus4 G  Gsus4  G
San...dy the aurora is rising behind  us

     Csus4 C          Csus4    C       F
This pier  lights our carnival life forever

   Csus4     C           Csus4        C           Gsus4  G  Gsus4
Oh love me tonight and I promise I'll love you forever

     G             F
Oh I mean it Sandy girl

G              C   Csus4  C
My my my my my baby

                     F
Yeah I promise Sandy girl

G               C   F  C
Sha la la la la baby
