I hear the rhythm of waves hittin’ on the shore

They’re telling me to relax, I’m not good at that
C
But now I know I need it, need it, need it

[Pre Chorus]
Am7 A#m6 G/B
‘Cause I, ooh, now what you do, nothin’ lies, tell the truth That’s right
G/B A#m6 Am7
Stay close on Venice beach, got sand all in my shoes To night
Am7 A#m6 G/B
Ooh, unlock me, loose, see the sunset from the roof That’s right
G/B D9
Sippin’ that crystal blue, and it came out someone new

Yeah, and in my summer feelings

And I’m trying to keep it co-oo-oo-ol

Wait, here in my summer feeling

And I found a piece of me that I never knew

You got my heart and I’m head over heels in love

In California, dreamin’, dreamin’, dreamin’

Touchin’ the stars and then draggin’ them down to Earth

That California, feelin’, feelin’, feelin’

How to play Summer Feelings Acoustic: key, chords and progression

Summer Feelings Acoustic by Lennon Stella is built around E minor (one sharp: F♯), with 6 chords in all: Em9, C, Am7, A#m6, G/B and D9.

The progression the song keeps returning to is D9 – Em9 – C – Em9 (VII9 – i9 – VI – i9 in E minor). Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Good to know: Em9, A#m6 and D9 are the tricky part on guitar (barre or movable shapes). Slow the change down until it is clean; on piano and ukulele they are simpler.
