Guitar chords with lyrics

(G D G)

 G                           D
It's been a cruel summer

                              G
The sun has been hit by the storms

                              D
My darling was bewitched by another

                                  G
Her black magic tricks stole his heart


 C                           G
I saw her screaming as she twirled her hair

                            D
So long and black like the storms

          G                                C
She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning

    G           D               G
I muttered a lonesome goodbye


(G D G)

 G                           D
It's been a cruel summer

                                    G
The kind that makes grown men turn pale

                              D
My darling was bewitched by another

                               G
I could not compete with black head


    C                         G
I saw her standing as she twirled her hair

                         D
So long and black like the storms

  G                                     C
She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning

     G          D            G
I muttered a lonesome goodbye

 G
She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning


I muttered a lonesome goodbye
