[Verse 1]
A                    D           E
Sun tanned toes ticklin' the sand
A                      D           E
Cold drank chillin' in my right hand
A                         D       E
Watchin' you sleep in the evenin' light
A                D         A
Restin' up for a long long night
 
 
[Chorus]
A                              D
'Cause when the sun goes down, we'll be groovin'
We'll be groovin'
         A                        D         E
When the sun goes down, we'll be feelin' alright
         A               D
When the sun sinks down, over the water
A                                D   E    A
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down, yeah
 
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
A                 D         E
All day long just takin' it easy
A                            D         E
Layin' in a hamock were it's nice and breezy
A                 D         E
Sleepin' off the night before,
                A                      D        A
'cause when the sun goes down we'll be back for more
 
 
[Chorus]
          A              D
When the sun goes down, we'll be groovin'
         A                        D         E
When the sun goes down, we'll be feelin' alright
         A               D
When the sun sinks down, over the water
A                                D   E    A
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down,

[Verse]
A                       D         E
This old guitar and my dark sun glasses
A                               D         E
   This sweet concoction is as smooth as molasses
A                      D         E
   Nothin' to do, but breath all day,
           A      N.C
Until that big moon rises and it's time to play

          A             D
When the sun goes down, we'll be groovin'

When the sun goes down, we'll be feelin' alright
         A               D
When the sun sinks down, over the water
A                                D   E    A
Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down, yeah

When the sun goes down, we'll be feelin' alright
         A               D           E
When the sun sinks down,   over the water

Everything gets hotter when the sun goes down, yeah

I'm hearing A-D-E through almost the entire song. Bar chords work best, Bar 5th for A and D then move it up to the 7th for the D. It's almost like a Reggae kind of thing.
