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