Oh, when the sun beats down and burns the tar up a on the roof,

and your shoes get so hot you wish your tired and feet were fire they (G)proof.

Un der the (C)board walk,

down by the (G)sea,

yeah,

on a blan ket with my ba by’s

where I’ll

(Un der the board walk.) Out of the sun (Un der the board walk.) we’ll be hav in’ some fun.

(Un der the board walk.) Peo ple walk in’ a bove, (Un der the board walk.) we’ll be fall in’ in love.

Un der the (Em)board walk, board walk.

From the park you hear the hap py sounds of a car ou sel,

you can al most so taste the hot your dogs and french fries fire they (G)sell.

Un der the (C)board walk,

down by the (G)sea,

yeah,

on a blan ket with my ba by’s

where I’ll

(Un der the board walk.) Out of the sun (Un der the board walk.) we’ll be hav in’ some fun.

(Un der the board walk.) Peo ple walk in’ a bove, (Un der the board walk.) we’ll be fall in’ in love.

Un der the (Em)board walk, board walk.
