[B]
[F#m] [B] [A]
[B]
And I woke up today [F#m] and found [B]
frost perched on the town.
It [E] hovered in a [B] frozen [A] sky, gobbled summer down.
[B]
[E] When the sun [D] turns trader cold, [E]
shivering [D] trees are standing in [F#] a naked row.
[B] And I get [A] the urge for going, but I [B] never seem to go.
[F#m] And I get [E] the urge [B] for going when [A] meadow [E] grass [B] is a turning,
[F#m] [E] summertime [B] is a falling,
[A] winter's [B] closing in.
And I had a [A] girl in summertime with [F#m] summer [B] colored skin,
and [E] not another [B] man in [A] town, my darling's heart could [B] win.
[E] And when the leaves fell [D] trembling down,
[E] and bully winds [D] did rub their faces [F#] in the snow,
[B] she got the urge [A] for going, and I had to let her [B] go.
And [A] she got [E] the urge for [B] going when [F#m] the meadow [E] grass [B] was a turning,
[F#m] [E] summertime [B] was a falling, the [A] winter's [B] closing in.
The warriors [E] of winter [F#m] [B] give a cold [E] [B] triumphant shout,
and [E] all that [B] stays is dying,
[A] and all that lives is getting [B] out.
[E] You see the geese in [D] chevron flight, [E] flapping [D] and racing on [F#] before the snow.
[B] Got the urge [A] for going, they've got the [B] wings, [E] and they get the urge [B] for going
[F#m] when [E] the meadow grass [B] is a turning,
[A] [E] summertime [B] is a falling, the [A] winter's [B] closing in.
But I'll play the fire with kindling, [A]
[F#m] pull the [A] blankets [B] to my chin,
and I'll [E] lock the [B] vagrant winter [A] out, and hold to my one [B] dream.
[E] I'd like to call back [D] summertime,
[E] and have her stay [D] just another [F#] month or so.
[B] She's got the urge for going, [A]
I [B] guess she'll have to go.
[F#m] And she gets [E] the urge [B] for going [F#m] when the [E] meadow grass [B] is a turning,
[E] all her [B] empires are falling, [A] winter's [B] closing in.
And [F#m] I get [E] the urge [B] for going [C#] when [E] the meadow grass [B] is a turning,
[C#] summertime
[E] [B] is a falling.
[F#m] [B]
