Intro: Bm D G D

Verse:
Bm                            D
Screen door cracked, thereʼs ball game on
G                        D
Man on a porch singin’ baritone
Bm                      D
Tan line leads to that gentle place
              G                  D
Between her collarbone and her stone-cold face

Bm D G D

Verse:
Bm                 D
Dockhand boys all say goodbye
        G                              D
To the women that they swear are gonna be their wives
Bm                       D
Theyʼll be gone by the wintertime
     G                              D
And they donʼt wanna bother with no friend of mine

Chorus:
Bm    A     G        D
Wet, hot, American nights
                            A        Bm
Shake your body dry under coastline light
Bm    A     G        D
Wet, hot, American nights
                                           A         Bm
Snuck our Fords to the shore and drank a bottle bone-dry
                                           A         Bm
Snuck our Fords to the shore and drank a bottle bone-dry

Verse:
       Bm                  D
Heard David got back from his first tour
        G                          D
But he ain’t the same boy that he was before
 Bm                     D
Twentyʼs too young to nearly die
 G                     D
American boys are a friend of mine

Bm D G D

Verse:
Bm                 D
Delco Danny cut a deal with the dealer
         G                     D
That he met out at the Rivers Casino
        Bm                                D
He got caught countinʼ cards, then them spades broke his heart
          G                       D
Then the Point Breeze boys broke his nose
Bm                           D
Mary got that job that she wanted out of town
          G                             D
She was better than the sum of all of us anyhow
Bm                       D
She still stops by whenever she can
         G                             D
Sheʼs tougher than my brother with her bad left hand

Chorus:
Bm    A     G        D
Wet, hot, American nights
                            A        Bm
Shake your body dry under coastline light
Bm    A     G        D
Wet, hot, American nights
           Bm           A                 G           D
Snuck our Fords to the shore and drank a bottle bone-dry
           Bm           A                 G           D
Snuck our Fords to the shore and drank a bottle bone-dry

Screen door cracked, thereʼs ball game on
G                        D
Man on a porch singin’ baritone
Bm                      D
Tan line leads to that gentle place
              G                  D
Between her collarbone and her stone-cold face
