[Em] [E] [F#m] [Em]
There are [F#m] blossoms on [E] the horn [B] that send the [E] morning breeze, and the oak [E] and the ash in the copper [A] beech are covered [B] down with [G#m] leaves.
And [F#m] the road is [E] bright in the morning light as it runs down [A] from the door, and the [C#m] lark is [F#m] high in the [E] golden [F#m] sky, and I'm on my way [B] once more.
Down [E] summer roads, [A] all full of turns [B] and bends, [E] summer roads [F#m] that lead to all [B] my friends.
[E] Summer roads by [A] summer streams, where I live [E] all [A] my winter dreams, and the good times [Bm] always start down [E] summer roads.
There's music all around [B] me on a great bush [E] and tree, and the cuckoo and the cornflake keep calling [B] out to [G#m] me.
[F#] And the linnet [E] song rings all day long to greet [A] me as I go, and [E] as I [F#m] pass in the [E] roadside [A] grass the magpie [B] nods hello.
Down [E] summer roads, [A] all full of [B] turns and bends, [E] summer roads [A] that lead to all [B] my friends.
[E] Summer roads [A] by summer streams, where I [E] live all [A] my winter dreams, [E] and the good [F#m] times always start [E] down summer roads.
In the quiet of the evening [B] I rodden [E] up my bow, and I started nice and easy with [A] something [B] soft and [E] slow.
There's a [E] faster beat in the village street, and the friends all start [A] to sway, and [E] the fiddle [F#m] sings and [E] the laughter [F#m] rings, and we dance till [B] the break of day.
[G#m] Down [E] summer [A] roads, all full of [B] turns and bends, [E] summer [A] roads that lead to [B] all my friends.
[E] Summer roads by [A] summer streams, where [E] I live all my [A] winter dreams, and the good times [B] always start down [E] summer roads.
There's a corner in my memory [B] where all the [E] good times stay, and in all my summer ramblings there were [B] good times every day.
[G#m] Round [F#m] every bend [E] I found a friend, a welcome and [A] a smile, and [E] pleasant hours [F#m] and fields [E] of flowers, [B] a memory every mile.
[E] Down summer [A] roads, all full of turns [B] and bends, [E] summer [A] roads that lead to [B] all my friends.
[E] Summer roads by [A] summer streams, where [E] I live all my [A] winter dreams, and the good times [B] always start down [E] summer roads.
Summer [A] roads, all full [B] of turns and bends, [E] summer roads [A] that lead to all [B] my friends.
[E] Summer roads by summer [A] streams, [E] where I live all [A] my winter dreams, [E] and [B] the good times always start down [E] summer roads.
