Chords

[Intro] C [Verse 1]
       C
Always wanted to be a child of summer

      F                    G    C
Maybe that would change my disposition

          C
I've been running around all these years

        F                         G    C
Praying for some for some kind of intermission

                   F
And I never minded loneliness

           C         G      F
In fact, I craved it like a hunger

                       C
But now I find myself alone again

        F      G        C
And the sorrow takes me under
[Verse 2]
C
Born under the full bright moon

        F           G       C
I guess that's what made me crazy

       C
Wonder how our love could fade away

   F       G        C
Perhaps we just got lazy

               F
I never minded loneliness

  C      G       F
Until it came to claim mе

                         C
So when I found myself alone again

F       G      C
I criеd like a baby
[Chorus]
    F      Am
Oh, love

         F
Keep the weight off my shoulders

                    G
Keep the wind at my back

    F      Am
Oh, love

   F                                G
If I'm not there, am I on the right track?
[Verse 3]
              C
Are you still wearing your blue raincoat?

             F      G        C
The one that's torn at the shoulder

           C
We used to dance and laugh and sing

           F             G      C
With no thought of ever growing older

                   F
And I never needed reassurance

          C       G      F
From some kind of higher power

                      C
But now I find myself wondering

F     G      C
In my lonely hour
[Verse 4]
           C
And I keep thinking there's a place to go

      F     G         C
Somewhere I can start over

          C
I'll just wander this big old world

    F          G        C
End up another deadbeat rover

                F
But if I needed company

      C      G        F
Would you be there to guide me?

                       C
If there's no path for me to take

          F        G     C
Then I'll wait for it to find me
[Chorus]
    F      Am
Oh, love

         F
Keep the weight off my shoulders

                    G
Keep the wind at my back

    F      Am
Oh, love

   F                                G
If I'm not there, am I on the right track?
[Outro]
       C
Always wanted to be a child of summer

      F                    G    C
Maybe that would change my disposition
