[A]
[E] [B] Still, I'm not [A] the weary lover, man, of this ocean
Stranded like a [B] running whale lost at sea
Sitting on [A] a rainy day down in the harbor
Watching as [E] the [B] gray clouds shadow the bay
[E] Looking [A] everywhere cause I had to find you
This is not the way [B] that I remember it here
[E] Anyone will [A] tell you it's a prison or island
Hidden [E] in the [B] summer for a million years
Great summer [F#] [C#m] land Birdies fly
So you look into the [A] land
It will tell you a story
A [E] story about a [B] chimney in the long ago
Listen [A] to the motion of the wind and mountains
Maybe you can [B] hear them talking like I do
[E] Gonna be [A] changing
They're gonna forget you
Or you're gonna [B] let them take you for a twist

Hidden [E] in the summer [B] for a million years
Great summer [F#] [C#m] land
In the sleeping season
You walk alone
With the coast all tied
And the birdies fly
Black against the ground
And make it worth
With rocks and sand
I [G#] hear the sound
Of the strangest voices
See the hungry eyes
They're hungry eyes
Great [C#m] summer land
