[Verse 1]
C            Em             Am
She's been afraid of the Cuisinart

C               Em        Am
Since nine-teen seventy-seven

C             Em           Am
Now when she opens up the house

                E7                F
Well she won't set foot in the kitchen

C            Em          Am
Her brother's dating an architect

C             Em          Am
They're coming up for the weekend

C         Em         Am
He never gave her the proper respect

    E7                           F
But she still meets the ferry to greet them
[Chorus]
F          C             E7
Oh, at the summer place, we got the space

   Am             G
if you've got the time

F       C            G
At the summer place, its so far away

E7
It's another state of...

Am   F   C    E7  Am    F  C    E7 (repeat intro riff over chorus) F  G
Miiind,  Miiind,  Miiind,  Miiind
[Verse 2]
C       Em           Am
She ran away back in seventy eight

C            Em            Am
Just down the beach to the neighbor's

C              Em           Am
They brought her back after sunset

            E7                 F
Her Dad said "Don't do me any favors"

C        Em        Am
Her Mom sat on the patio

C            Em         Am
She said she needed the sea air

C           Em        Am
She drank a fifth of Seagram's

               E7                F
And then she'd sink down into her deck chair
[Chorus 2]
F          C             E7
Oh, at the summer place, we got the space

   Am             G
if you've got the time

F       C            G
At the summer place, its so far away

E7
It's another state of...

Am   F   C    E7  Am    F  C    E7 (repeat intro riff over chorus) F  G
Miiind,  Miiind,  Miiind,  Miiind
[Bridge]
Am           G/B
At fifteen, shop-lifting

C             Fmaj7
Was the only game she liked to play

Am        G/B
At forty, she's so bored she

C               Fmaj7
Thinks about it then decides to pay

Am             G
But still she can't help feeling

D/F#                                  G
Those good old days don't seem so far away

                   E7
(seem so far away) Just like yesterday
[Verse 3]
C          Em         Am
She took a handful of mushrooms

C        Em         Am
That she got from a surfer

C           Em         Am
She spent a night in a hospital room

E7                    F
So the doctors could observe her
[Chorus 3]
F          C             E7                   Am                G
Oh, at the summer place, We've got the space, you should drop on by

F          C
Oh, at the summer place

G                        E7
the injuries fade but the memories last a life

Am     F
Tiiiime

   C      E7
A lifetiiiime

  Am     F
A lifetiiiime

 C      E7
A lifetiiiime
[Outro] F G (pause) A
