Chords

[Intro] A D F G [Verse 1]
A
Back in the country

               D
Livin' on the double e

       F        G
In the sunshine of her life

A
There's a ready young filly

A
And mom and daddy

D
Won't let her leave

        F          G          A
Mom and papa won't let her go.
[Chorus]
G             D       A
But when they go out dancin'

    G          D      A
She breaks out on her own

G                   D        A
She's hot enough to burn the house down

    G                    D
And mom and daddy don't know.
[Instrumental] A D F G A [Verse 2]
A
When Edith and Earl

                   D
Renamed the double e

     F           G
They nearly made history

A
neighbours rose up

                              D
And some of them were mad as hell

          F              G      A
'cause it used to be the double L.
[Chorus]
G            D           A
Change comes slow in the country

            G               D         A
When you're new, there's a lot of distrust

G          D      A
Years pass by uneventful,

    G                 D
And memories turn to dust.
[Instrumental] A D F G A [Verse 3]
A
Meanwhile granny

                   C      D
Has got her bright colors on

     F           G
The sunshine in her eyes

A
Cruisin' by the bars

                       C       D
And honky tonks where she met grandpa

    F           G           A
And caught that young man's eye.
[Chorus]
G     D          A
Dusty white eldorado

G         D          A
Cruisin' through the trees

G        D            A
Slippin' through the shadows

   G            D    A
Of what used to be
[Outro]
A
Back in the day

               C        D
Livin' in the summer of love

F             G         A
Livin' in the summer of love

A
Grandma's ok

                       C         D
But not the same since grandpa's gone

      F             G         A
She's livin' in the summer of love

A
Back in the day

               C        D
Livin' in the summer of love

F             G         A
Livin' in the summer of love

F             G         A
Livin' in the summer of love

Livin' in the summer of love
