(Original Key: F#)
Intro:
[D]
Verse 1:
[D] Summer soft,
[C#7] Wakes you with a kiss,
To start the [C7]morning off.
[B7] In the midst of herself,
Playing [G]Santa Claus,
She brings [Em7]gifts.[A7]..
Through her [D]breeze.
[D] Morning rain,
[C#7] Gently plays her rhythmns,
On your [C7]window pane.
[B7] Giving you no clue,
Of when she [G]plans to change,
To bring [Em7]rain, [A7]or sun-[D]shine.
Bridge 1:
[D] And so you wait,
To see what she'll [C#7]do;
Is it [C7]sun or rain for [B7]you?
But it [G]breaks your heart in [Em7]two,
When [A7]you find [D]it's [C]Oc-[Bm]to-[Bb]ber...
Chorus 1:
[D] And she's [Gm7]gone,[C7]
And she's [Gm7]gone.[C7]
Summer's [Dmaj7]gone,[Em7]
Taking [D]with [C]her [Bm]sum-[Bb]mer's [Em7]play..[A].
Verse 2:
[D] Winter wind,
[C#7] Whispers to you that he,
Wants to [C7]be your friend.
[B7] But not waiting for your answer,
[G] He begins,
Forcing [Em7]dangers [A7]way with his [D]breeze.
[D] Morning snow,
[C#7] Plans to have a winter ball,
For [C7]you to throw.
[B7] But just where or when,
He never [G]lets you know,
If it's [Em7]snow,
Or [A7]clear days you'll [D]find.
Bridge 2:
[D] And so you wait,
To see what she'll [C#7]do;
Is it [C7]sun or rain for [B7]you?
But it [G]breaks your heart in [Em7]two,
'Cos you've been [D]fooled [C]by [Bm]Ap-[Bb]ril...
