Intro: A D x4
Verse 1:
in the [A]tall grass of a long sun
a [D]quiet repast and I'm sweet nothings
[A] come hell I'm your lover your
[D]man your friend your fair weather
it's a [A]world stopped afternoon

Verse 2:
[A]summer dress your hair's wet
and [D]gets into our kisses
[A] can you tell why my intentions

there's the [A]promise and the
shell of great be[D]ginnings seldom fi[C#m]nished[Bm]
Chorus:

[D] is the [Dm]summer really [A]through?
Verse 3:
s[A]traps down and overtired
if I [D]had a favorite picture
I'd call it [A]right now
uncertain [D]braced for your disaster

I'm a [A]thrown fight in your
favor I'll do [D]everything
but [C#m]listen to you [Bm]now[D]
Chorus 2:
[D] in the [A]laze of an [C#m]empty after[D]noon

[A]southbound those motel towns
can [D]mend most broken mornings
there's [A]citrus groves where
noone knows the [D]fruit of truth from evil
and a [A]long walk on a short pier
means [D]nothing more than [C#m]swimming here[Bm][D]
Chorus 3:
[D] there's an [A]end but [C#m]we don't
get to [D]choose[D] we can [Dm]only [A]lose
D A C#m D(hold)
if I cried a river just for you
[D]would you swim in it
some sunny after[A]noon?
