[Intro] Am C F G [Verse 1]
Am                 C                 F              G
The cigarettes and carrot juice. Get yourself a new tattoo

Am        C                  F          G
For those sleeveless days of June

Am                     C              F                     G
I'm sitting on the Cafe Zinho's steps with a book I haven't started yet

Am               C               F        G
Watching all the girls walk by
[Chorus]
G                F
Could I take you out?

F                      Dm    C           G
I'd be yours without a doubt on that big dipper

G                                 F
If the sound of this it frightens you

F                     Dm   C                G
We could play it real cool and act somewhat indifferent
[Verse 2]
Am            C                         F                             G
And hey June, why'd you have to come... Why'd you have to come around so soon?

Am             C            F            G
I wasn't ready for all this nature

Am           C                 F                     G
The terrible green green grass and violent blooms of flowered dresses

Am             C                    F        G
And afternoons that make me sleepy
[Chorus 2]
G                 F
But we could wait a while

 F                      Dm        C        G
'Fore we push that dull turnstile into the passage

G                   F
Thousands they have tread

F                    Dm   C               G
And others sometimes fled before the turn came

G                 F
We could wait our lives

F               Dm       C          G
Before a chance arrives, before the passage

G                        F
From the top you can see Monterey

F                  Dm   C                           G
Or think about San Jose though I know it's not that pleasant
[Verse 3]
Am          C        F              G
And hey Jim Kerouac, brother of the famous Jack

Am                C      F               G
Or so he likes to say... Lucky bastard

Am                  C                  F           G
He's sitting on the Cafe Zinho's steps with a girl I'm not over yet

Am               C             F        G
Watching all the world go by
[Chorus 3]
G                   F
Boy, you're looking bad

F                        Dm   C            G
Did I make you feel that sad? I'm honestly flattered

G                   F
But if she asked me out

F                     Dm    C           G
I'd be hers without a doubt on that big dipper
[Verse 4]
Am                 C                 F              G
The cigarettes and carrot juice. Get yourself a new tattoo

Am        C                  F          G
For those sleeveless days of June

Am                 C                   F                 G
I'm sitting on the Cafe Zinho's steps, I haven't got the courage yet

Am                G
I haven't got the courage yet...
