this is a great song off ketih urbans new album defying gravity. if you're like me
and not too good at lead have a go at this.
intro:
Am F G x3
[Am]Another long [F]summer's come and [G]gone,
[Am]I don't know [F]why it always e[G]nds this way,
[Am]The boardwalk's [F]quiet and the carniva[G]l rides,
are as empty as my [F]broken heart to[G]night,
But I [F]close my eyes and [C]one more time,
I'm spinnin' a[G]round and you're holding on tightly,
The w[F]ords came out, I [C]kissed your mouth,
No 4th of [G]July has ever burned so brightly,
You [F]had to go, I [C]understand,
But you p[G]romised you'd be back again,
And so I wonder [F]round this town,[G]
Til summer comes around.
Am F G x2
[Am]I got a job [F]workin' at the old park[G] pier,
[Am]And every s[F]ummer now for 5 long [G]years,
[Am]I grease the gears, fix the lights,[F] tighten bolts, straighten the [G]tracks,
And I count the days til [F]you just might come [G]back,
But then I [F]close my eyes and [C]one more time,
I'm spinnin'[G] around and you're holding on tightly,
The wo[F]rds came out, I k[C]issed your mouth,
No 4th of [G]July has ever burned so brightly,
You h[F]ad to go, I un[C]derstand,
But you [G]swore that you'd be back again,
And so Im frozen [F]in this town,[G]
Til summer comes around.
During Solo Play:
Am F G x5
Oh Then I [F]close my eyes and [C]you and I,
Stuck on the [G]ferris wheel rockin' with the motion,
And [F]hand in hand we [C]cried and laughed,
Knowin' that the [G]earth belonged to us, girl, if only for a moment,
[F]Baby I'd be [C]back again, you [G]whispered in my ear,
But now the winter wind is the [F]only sound,[G]
And everything is [F]closin' down,[G]
Til summer comes around,
Outro:
