The sum mer days
are gone too soon.
You shoot the moon
and (Fsus2)miss com plete ly.
And now you’re left to face
the gloom,
the emp ty (C)room that (Fsus2)once smelled sweet ly.
Of all the flow ers you plucked, if on ly
you (Dm7)knew the rea son
why you (Gsus)had to each be lone ly.
Was it (Dm7)just the sea son?
Now the fall is here
a gain.
You can’t be gin

It’s all o ver.

you’re roll in’ (C)too, with (F)some new lov er.
Will you (G)think of times you’ve told me

It was just the sea son.
