[Verse]
       A         C#m             F#m
Summer on, bring on the buzzing past
       A         C#m          F#m      F#m
Summer on, bring on august trash
                     A
The sweat of Johnny Cash
                      C#m
The hot-knife to the hash
                   F#m      F#m
The girls in the grass
                 A   C#m     F#m
Summer, bring it on, oh, at last


[Pre-chorus]
 F#m
Days that glow and ignite
                  D
And explode into nights
 F#m
Nights that scream for morphine
                   Dmaj7 Dmmaj7
And swim into the days
 Dmaj9              F#m
Days of whisky and cake
                   D
Nights of make-believe
                  F#m
Days you don`t believe
                     D
Nights of faith in flames
                           A
And not consumed by flames


[Chorus]
                           D
Ah still, summer`s always going
                            A
Turning everything Canada-grey
                              D
And I will miss all the not-knowing
                 A
Of those summer days
                                       F#m
But I swear I will take morphine and swim
                              D
If you take one more look at him
                  A
Ah, those yellow days


[Verse]
      C#m             F#m      F#m
Bring on the liquid smoke
       A               C#m
Summer on, night`s a blindfold
       F#m  F#m                     A
Stay close,    then this bird has flown
                     C#m
The bullet hits the bone
                           F#m     F#m
And it`s all filmed on a phone
                 A   C#m        F#m
Summer`s getting on, oh, stay close


[Pre-chorus]
 F#m
Days glowing, igniting
                D
Exploding into nights
 F#m
Nights, `I`m cold`, I`m here
                           Dmaj7 Dmmaj7
`Hold me closer to the day`
 Dmaj9              F#m
Days it`s in your blood
                   D
Nights you never dreamed
                         F#m
(It`s supposed to be a dream)
                     D
Nights lost in the flood
                          A
And not lost in the flood


[Chorus]
                           D
Ah still, summer`s always going
                            A
Turning everything Canada-grey
                              D
And I will miss all the not-knowing
                 A
Of those summer days
                                       F#m
But I swear I will take morphine and swim
                              D
If you take one more look at him
                  A   C#m  F#m  F#m
Ah, those yellow days


[Outro]
                         A   C#m  F#m  F#m
Ah, those yellow days
                         A   C#m  F#m  F#m
Ah, those yellow days
