Lyrics

When I met you in the (C)sum mer,

to my heart beat (Am)sound,

we fell in love

as the leaves turned (Am)brown.

And we could be to geth er, ba (Em)by, as long as skies are (Am)blue.

You act so in no cent (Em)now;

but you lied so (Am)soon,

when I met you in the (Cmaj7)sum mer.

When I met you in the (Cmaj7)sum mer,

to my heart beat (Am)sound,

we fell in love

as the leaves turned (Am7)brown.

And we could be to geth er, ba (Em)by, as long as skies are (Am)blue.

You act so in no cent (Em)now;

but you lied so (Am7)soon,

when I met you in the sum mer.

(Sum mer,

yeah.

Sum mer,

yeah.)

Sum mer.

(Sum mer,

yeah.

Sum mer,

yeah.)
