_ [C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I _ [Fm] [Bb] awoke today and found the frost perched on the [C] town
_ [D] It [Gm] hovered in [C] a frozen [D] sky
[Gm] Then it gobbled [C] summer down
[F] When the sun [Eb] turns traitor [F] cold
And all the [Eb] trees are shivering in [G] a naked _ row
_ _ [C] I get the [Bb] urge for going
But I never _ [Gm] seem [C] to go
_ I _ _ [Bb]
get [F] the urge [C] for _ [G] going
[Bb] When [F] the meadow grass is [C] turning [Bb] brown
And [F] summertime [D] is [G] falling [C] down
And [Gm] winter's closing in
[C] _ _
_ _ I had me a [Gm] man in summertime
_ _ He had summer [C]
-colored skin
[Gm] And not another [C]
girl in [Gm] town
My darling's [C] heart could win
_ [F] But when the [Eb] leaves fell on the ground
[F] _ Blue winds came [Eb] around, pushed them [Gm] face down
[G] _ In the snow he [C] _ got the [Bb] urge for going
And I had to let [G] him [C] go _ _ _
[Bb] He got [F] the urge for [Gm] going
[Bb] When the [F] meadow grass [C] was turning [Gm]
brown
[Bb] And [F] summertime [D] was falling [C] down
And winter [Gm] was closing _ [C]
in
_ _ Now the warriors _ [Gm] of winter
They give a cold [C] triumphant shout
_ [Gm] And all that stays [C] is dying
_ [Gm] All that lives is [C] getting out
[F] See thou [Eb] peace in chevron [F] flight
Flopping [Eb] and erasing on [G] before _ the snow
_ _ [C] They got the urge [Bb] for going
And they got the wings [G] so they can go
[C] _ They _ [Bb] get [F] the urge [C] for [G] going
[Bb] When the [F] meadow grass [G] is turning [Bb] brown
And [F] summertime is [Gm] falling down
And winter's closing [C] in
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ I'll ply the fire [D] with kindling now
I'll pull [Gm] up blankets up to [C] my chin
_ [Gm] _ I'll lock the [C] vagrant winter out
[D] And I'll [Gm]
hold [C] my wandering in
[F] I'd like to [Eb] call back summertime
[F] And have her [Eb] stay for just another [G] month
_ _ _ But [C] she's got the [Bb] urge for going
So I guess she'll have to [C] go _ _ _ _
[Bb] She gets [F] the [D] urge for [G]
going
[Bb] When [F] the meadow [D] grass is turning [Bb] brown
And [F] all her [G] empire's falling down
And [Gm] winter's closing _ _ [C] in
_ _ [Bb] And I get [F] the urge [D] for [G] going
[Bb] When [F] the meadow grass [D] is [Gm] turning [Bb] brown
And _ [F]
summertime [D] is falling down _ _
