Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Verse 1:

   G   Cdim   C     Edim   G
When I was young I lived in a world of dreams
   G    Cdim      C     Edim   G
Of moods and myths and il - lu - sion - ar - y schemes
    Em         B7
Though now I'm much more grown up
  Em       B7
I fear that I must own up
    D9        A7
To the fact that I'm in doubt of
     D9   Am7   D7
What the modern cynics shout of.

Refrain:

 G  G/E    Am7  D7 G  G/E   Am7 Cdim  D7
They say it's spring,  this feeling light as a feather;
   Em Gdim B7   Em      Gdim   B7
They say this thing, this magic we share together
 Am      Em    C  Cdim
Came with the weather, too.

Verse 2:

G  G/E    Am7 D7 G   G/E   Am7 Cdim  D7
They say it's May   that's made me daft as a daisy;
   Em Gdim B7 B7/F# Em       Gdim
It's May, they say,    that gave the whole world
   B7  Am    Em  C  Cdim
This crazy, heavenly, hazy hue.

Bridge:

    F#7     B7
I'm a lark on the wing
     F#7    Gdim    F#7
I'm the spark of a firefly's fling
Fdim  C Am Edim    G E7
Yet to me,  this must be
     C  C/B  Am7    Am7/G B7 Cdim D7
Something more than a sea - son - al thing.

Verse 3:

G  G/E   Am7 D7 G    G/E    Am7  Cdim  D7
Could it be spring,   those bells that I can hear ringing?
  Em Gdim B7 B7/F# Em       Gdim     B7
It may be spring,    but when the robins stop singing
Cdim       Em   B7
You're what I'm clinging to
Edim  G  G/E    Am7  Cdim G G Fdim C Cdim G G/B Am7 Cdim
Though they say it's spring, it's you.

Refrain:

G  G/E Am7 D7 G   G/E   Am7  Cdim    D7
If poets sing,   that when a heart's sym - pa - thet - ic
Em  Gdim  B7  B7/F# Em      Gdim      B7
It's merely spring,    then poets plights are pa - thet - ic
Am      Em  C Cdim
Though I'm poetic too,

Verse 4:
G  G/E    Am7 D7 G  G/E    Am7  Cdim    D7
They say it's spring -- for lovers, there's where the lure is,
Em  Gdim  B7 B7/F# Em        Gdim      B7
That evil thing     for which Sep - tem - ber the cure is,
Am       Em   C Cdim
This they are sure is true;

Bridge:

     F#7      B7
Though I know that it's so
     F#7   Gdim     F#7
That my fancy may turn in the spring,
Fdim   C  Am Edim   G  E7
With the right  one in sight
     C C/B   Am7 Am7/G   B7 Cdim D7
One can find a per - pet - u - al thing.

Outro:
G G/E   Am7 D7 G   G/E   Am7 Cdim    D7
Did I need spring   to bring the ring that you bought me?
Em   Gdim   B7 B7/F# Em        Gdim     B7
Thought it was spring     that marvelous day that you caught me,
Cdim     Em    B7
Darling, I thought we knew,
Edim G G/E   Am7  Cdim G G Fdim C Cdim G G/B Am7 Cdim G6
That it wasn't spring, 'twas you.
