Chords

(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. Rhythm is three-four time. Capo 4th fret Intro: Em A Em Em (2x)
     Em       A            Em
The night runs away with the day

     Em           A           Em
The grass that was green is now hay

     Am       Em            C       B
The world goes around without even a sound

       Em            A       Em
And it looks like the summer is over

     Em         A          Em
The rains tumble down in the sky

      Em           A            Em
Young swallows have learned how to fly

     Am              Em           C         B
The leaves that were green are no longer so green

        Em            A        Em
And it looks like the summer is over

    C           D         G            A
The sun and the moon take turns in the sky

     C            D        G
The days drift on by too soon

F#7             Bm          E7          Am  
The meadows are kissed by a cool autumn mist

                 B
Far away now is June

     Em        A          Em
The birds fly away to the sun

     Em               A            Em
The leaves touch the ground one by one

     Am            Em         C        B
The breeze hurries by without even goodbye

       Em             A         Em
And it looks like the summer is over

    C           D          G            A
The sun and the moon take turns in the sky

     C            D        G
The days drift on by too soon

F#7             Bm          E7          Am  
The meadows are kissed by a cool autumn mist

                 B
Far away now is June

     Em       A           Em
The birds fly away to the sun

     Em               A            Em
The leaves touch the ground one by one

     Am            Em         C     B
The breeze hurries by without even goodbye

       Em             A       Em
And it looks like the summer is over

       Em            A       Em
And it looks like the summer is over
