Summer Is Over - by Dusty Springfield
(Tom Springfield / Clive Westlake)
Cool song from the sixties which beautifully transports the
melancholy mood at the end of the warm season. Could have
been a tune from a James Bond or Quentin Tarantino movie.
This is the capo free version in the original key. If you must
have a capo, use the app to transpose the song 4 halftones
down and put the capo in the 4th fret.
Rhythm is three-four time.
Intro: G#m C# G#m G#m (2x)
The n[G#m]ight runs [C#]away with the [G#m]day
The g[G#m]rass that was [C#]green is now [G#m]hay
The w[C#m]orld goes [G#m]around without [E]even a s[Eb]ound
And it [G#m]looks like the [C#]summer is[G#m] over
The r[G#m]ains tumble [C#]down in the [G#m]sky
Young [G#m]swallows have [C#]learned how to[G#m] fly
The l[C#m]eaves that were [G#m]green are no [E]longer so [Eb]green
And it l[G#m]ooks like the [C#]summer is [G#m]over
The [E]sun and the [F#]moon take [B]turns in the [C#]sky
The d[E]ays drift on [F#]by too soo[B]n
[Bb7]The meadows are [Ebm]kissed by a [G#7]cool autumn m[C#m]ist
Far away now is J[Eb]une
The b[G#m]irds fly a[C#]way to the[G#m] sun
The [G#m]leaves touch the [C#]ground one by [G#m]one
The b[C#m]reeze hurries[G#m] by without [E]even g[Eb]oodbye
And it [G#m]looks like the [C#]summer is[G#m] over
The [E]sun and the [F#]moon take [B]turns in the [C#]sky
The d[E]ays drift on [F#]by too soo[B]n
[Bb7]The meadows are [Ebm]kissed by a [G#7]cool autumn m[C#m]ist
Far away now is J[Eb]une
The b[G#m]irds fly a[C#]way to the[G#m] sun
The [G#m]leaves touch the [C#]ground one by [G#m]one
The b[C#m]reeze hurries[G#m] by without [E]even g[Eb]oodbye
And it [G#m]looks like the [C#]summer is[G#m] over
And it [G#m]looks like the [C#]summer is[G#m] over
