Summer Of Girl by Static Theory

[Intro — clean guitar shimmer, warm synth pulse, light drums, gentle turntable scratches; whispered] Sun on our shoulders Bare feet on the pavement Windows down And nowhere we have to be [Verse 1 — melodic guitar riff, steady drums, bright synth, playful turntable cuts] Running through the sprinklers Laughing in the street Sunlight on our faces Dancing to the beat Cheap sunglasses crooked Hair blowing in the breeze We don't need a reason To do whatever we please Late nights at the corner Cold drinks in our hands Talking about forever Like forever's already planned [Pre-Chorus — guitar opens up, drums build, synth swells, turntable filter sweep] We don't care what tomorrow brings Tonight we're everything No rules written on the sidewalk No one telling us to stop [Chorus — heavy melodic guitars, full drums, shimmering synth layers, rhythmic turntable scratches; melodic] It's the summer of girl We're alive in a different world Running wild underneath the sun Laughing like we've already won It's the summer of girl Every night is ours to hold We don't need to grow up yet We're not ready to forget It's the summer of girl [Verse 2 — palm-muted guitar groove, punchy drums, pulsing synth, turntable stutters] Sneakers kicking up the dust Music spilling from the car Taking pictures in the sunset Wondering where we are Little secrets passed around Like they're treasures we can keep Then we're screaming out the windows When the city falls asleep Someone's got a camera Someone's got a lighter Someone's telling stories While the whole night climbs higher [Pre-Chorus — rising distorted guitar, stronger drums, synth arpeggio, turntable rewind] We don't care what tomorrow brings Tonight we're everything No rules written on the sidewalk No one telling us to stop [Chorus — distorted guitars, explosive drums, bright synth, energetic turntable scratches; melodic] It's the summer of girl We're alive in a different world Running wild underneath the sun Laughing like we've already won It's the summer of girl Every night is ours to hold We don't need to grow up yet We're not ready to forget It's the summer of girl [Guitar Solo — extended melodic guitar solo with soaring bends, bright harmonized phrases, rapid runs and sustained feedback; driving drums, shimmering synth and rhythmic turntable scratches] [Bridge — clean guitar arpeggios, soft drums, atmospheric synth, turntable vinyl crackle; whispered] Maybe someday we'll look back And miss the way we felt When a summer night could last forever And we didn't need anybody else No perfect plans No perfect lives Just open skies And fireflies [Breakdown — chunky guitar chugs, pounding drums, distorted synth bass, rhythmic turntable cuts; shouted] RUN! LAUGH! STAY UP ALL NIGHT! SUNRISE! HEADLIGHTS! EVERYTHING FEELS RIGHT! NO SLEEP! NO RULES! NO REASON TO SLOW DOWN! THIS IS OUR SUMMER! THIS IS OUR TOWN! [Final Chorus — full distorted guitars, huge drums, soaring synth, rapid turntable scratches; melodic] It's the summer of girl We're alive in a different world Running wild underneath the sun Laughing like we've already won It's the summer of girl Every night is ours to hold We don't need to grow up yet We're not ready to forget It's the summer of girl And when the seasons change We'll keep these nights inside our hearts Even when we're far away [Outro — fading clean guitar, soft synth shimmer, gentle drums, slow turntable fade; whispered] Sun on our shoulders Bare feet on the pavement Summer in our eyes And nowhere else to be
