There are two guitars in this song
The electric guitar you hear strumming in the verse
is playing something slightly different.
These are the chords that the acoustic
is playing.
I used the lyrics from the version on Myles Kennedy's Myspace.
I don't know if they're different than the album.
Also, the song is played in
Drop D tuning, but its not really necessary
if you want to play the song.
D G Am D A
Fl[D]owers placed
At the f[Am]oot of the grave
Of the [G]one we lost for[D]ever
J[D]esus please
Let her s[Am]oul rest in peace
And make w[G]ay a new angel's in h[D]eaven
Summerg[D]irl went aw[Am]ay
Everyth[G]ing has been d[D]ying
Summerg[D]irl went aw[Am]ay
And the s[G]un doesn't sh[D]ine
[D]All alone
In the h[Am]ouse we called home
And the w[G]alls still echo of her l[D]aughter
We'd dr[D]eam of a world
Far aw[Am]ay we'll never know
Since she l[G]eft i don't dream anym[D]ore....
Summerg[D]irl went aw[Am]ay
Everyth[G]ing has been d[D]ying
Summerg[D]irl went aw[Am]ay
And the s[G]un doesn't sh[D]ine
Bridge:
(D,Am,G,D) x2
When the band comes in I just play this:
Summerg[D]irl went aw[Am]ay
Everyth[G]ing has been d[D]ying
Summerg[D]irl went aw[Am]ay
G D G D
D
no more, yeah,
y[G]e---ah
D
oh the sun don't shine no more
G A
every since you went away, oh yeah
End on D
