(Original Key: F#)


Intro:

D

Verse 1:

D
 Summer soft,
C#7
 Wakes you with a kiss,
             C7
To start the morning off.

B7
 In the midst of herself,
        G
Playing Santa Claus,
           Em7   A7
She brings gifts...
            D
Through her breeze.

D
 Morning rain,
C#7
 Gently plays her rhythmns,
        C7
On your window pane.

B7
 Giving you no clue,
            G
Of when she plans to change,
         Em7   A7     D
To bring rain, or sun-shine.

Bridge 1:

D
 And so you wait,
                   C#7
To see what she'll do;
      C7              B7
Is it sun or rain for you?
       G                    Em7
But it breaks your heart in two,
     A7       D    C  Bm Bb
When you find it's Oc-to-ber...

Chorus 1:

D          Gm7   C7
 And she's gone,
          Gm7   C7
And she's gone.
         Dmaj7  Em7
Summer's gone,
       D    C   Bm  Bb    Em7   A
Taking with her sum-mer's play...

Verse 2:

D
 Winter wind,
C#7
 Whispers to you that he,
         C7
Wants to be your friend.

B7
 But not waiting for your answer,
G
 He begins,
        Em7     A7           D
Forcing dangers way with his breeze.

D
 Morning snow,
C#7
 Plans to have a winter ball,
    C7
For you to throw.

B7
 But just where or when,
         G
He never lets you know,
        Em7
If it's snow,
   A7                D
Or clear days you'll find.

Bridge 2:

D
 And so you wait,
                   C#7
To see what she'll do;
      C7              B7
Is it sun or rain for you?
       G                    Em7
But it breaks your heart in two,
                 D      C  Bm Bb
'Cos you've been fooled by Ap-ril...

Winter's gone,
         Eb   C# Cm B
You find it's Oc-to-ber...
