Verse 1:
D G D/F# Em D On certain Sundays in November when the weather bothers me (D) G D/F# Em D I empty drawers of other summers where my shadows used to be (D) G D/F# Em D And she is standing by the water as her smile begins to curl (D) G D/F# Em7 In this or any other summer she is something altogether different Em7 Never just an ordinary girl [riff]
Verse 2:
D G D/F# Em D And in the evenings on Long Island when the colours start to fade (D) G D/F# Em D She wears a silly yellow hat that someone gave her when she stayed (D) G D/F# Em D I didn't think that she returned it we left New York in a whirl (D) G D/F# Em7 Time expands and then contracts when you are spinning in the grips of Em7 G someone who is not an ordinary girl
Chorus 1:
A D G When you sleep you find your mother in the night D G But she stays just out of sight D F#m A So there isn't any sweetness in the dreaming G A D G And when you wake the morning covers you with light D G And it makes you feel alright D F#m A Dsus2 (to riff) But it's just the same hard candy you're remembering again
Verse 3:
D G D/F# Em D You send your lover off to China then you wait for her to call (D) G D/F# Em D You put your girl up on a pedestal then you wait for her to fall (D) G D/F# Em D I put my summer's back in a letter and I hide it from the world (D) G D/F# Em7 All the regrets you can't forget are somehow pressed upon a picture Em7 G In the face of such an ordinary girl
Chorus 2:
A D G And when you sleep you find your mother in the night D G But she stays just out of sight D F#m A So there isn't any sweetness in the dreaming G A D G And when you wake the morning showers you with light D G And it makes you feel alright D G A D But it's just the same hard candy you're remembering again G Em7 A Again, again, again D G A D It's just the same hard candy you're remembering again G E A Again, again, again D G A And it's just the same hard candy you're remembering again e|-----------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------| G|-----------------------------------------------| D|------------------------0h2----0---------------| A|------3--2---3--2--2h3-------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------| Outro riff: e|-----0-----------0-----------0-----------0-----| B|-------3-----------3-----------3-----------3---| G|---------2-----------2-----------2-----------2-| D|-0---------------------------------------------| A|-------------4-----------3---------------------| E|-------------------------------------3---------|
