Verse 1:
   G+G
I was in your presence
    C majorC
For an hour or so
  D MajorD
Or was it a day
    G+G
I truly don't know

    G+G
For the sun never set
     C majorC
For the trees hung low
D MajorD            G+G
By that soft and shining sea

G+G           C majorC
Did you respect me for what I did
D MajorD              G+G
Or did I lose my mind when I tried to get big
G+G           C majorC
Did I lose my mind when I tried to get hid
D MajorD          G+G
From everything you see

Chorus:

D MajorD      G+G

I got the heart and you got the blood
D MajorD             G+G
We cut through iron and we cut through mud
G+G            C majorC
But then came the storm before the flood
  D MajorD        G+G
That set everybody free

G+G         C majorC
Fools they made a mock of sin
  D MajorD      G+G
Our loyalty they tried to win
G+G                C majorC
But you were closer to me than my next of kin
   D MajorD           G+G
They didn't want to know or see

G+G          C majorC
Strangers meddle in our affairs
D MajorD        G+G
Our poverty and shame was theirs
G+G        C majorC
But all that is not to be compared
G+G       D MajorD
With the glory that is to be

G+G              C majorC
Now I'm still carrying that gift you gave
D MajorD              G+G
It's a part of me it's been cherished and saved
G+G           C majorC
And it will be with be until the grave
  D MajorD         G+G
And into eternity

When you were with me

In the summer time
 C majorC
(Summer time)
D MajorD      G+G
Ooohh in the summer time
    G+G
In the summer time
