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


[Pre-chorus]
 F# minorF#m
Days that glow and ignite
         D MajorD
And explode into nights
 F# minorF#m
Nights that scream for morphine
          Dmaj7Dmaj7 DmMaj7Dmmaj7
And swim into the days
 DMaj9Dmaj9       F# minorF#m
Days of whisky and cake
          D MajorD
Nights of make-believe
         F# minorF#m
Days you don`t believe
           D MajorD
Nights of faith in flames
              A augmentedA
And not consumed by flames

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


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


[Pre-chorus]
 F# minorF#m
Days glowing, igniting
        D MajorD
Exploding into nights
 F# minorF#m
Nights, `I`m cold`, I`m here
              Dmaj7Dmaj7 DmMaj7Dmmaj7
`Hold me closer to the day`
 DMaj9Dmaj9       F# minorF#m
Days it`s in your blood
          D MajorD
Nights you never dreamed
             F# minorF#m
(It`s supposed to be a dream)
           D MajorD
Nights lost in the flood
             A augmentedA
And not lost in the flood


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


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