Title: Summer

This is the chord Progression and lyrics to my favorite band.  all leads
should be played on a D pentatonic scale.  Drew has a really cool
harmonica part I'll try to transcribe that much later it's too hard.
enjoy this song. These guys rock

G C G Am Em D5 C
G C G Am Em D5 C

G                   C
Sipping wine in the august rain
G                     Am
watching our lives go down the drain
Em               D5
Hoping that we'd both keep sane
C
somehow
G                    C
As we drifted down a distant shore
G                           Am
Our dreams were lived but I wanted more
Em                    D5
I wish that she could hear me sing
C
right now
G               C
Summer came and left again
G                   Am
I staggered by her until the end
Em                    D5
She said we'd always still be friends
       C
But I guess that's how it goes
                          (How it goes)
G                 C
I cannot seem to understand
G                Am
Why she left me crashing without her hand
Em                     D5
I wrote her name out in the sand
         C
but it's gone
G                      C
The waves came racing in so high
G             Am
I never even said goodbye
Em                       D5
They say that consience never lies
           C
but that's all I have left of you
                               (All I have left of you)
G               C
Summer came and left again
G                  Am
I staggered by her until the end
    Em                D5
She said we'd always still be friends
      C
But I guess that's how it goes
                           (How it goes)
