Summer chords by The Manimals

Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse:
D           G     D              G
Ravens have flown from tower and parapet
D           G    D            G
My mother below, shouting out epithets
F#m             G
I would risk a branch's snap
    F#m              G
And I would leap the widest gap
F#m             A               Bm    G
Just to see the world laid out like a map
  Em            A             Bm
I didn't know a thing until I fell
Em            A         Bm A  G
Far enough to see their seven hells

Chorus:
Bm              A
And if I didn't die
         Bm       F#m     G   A   D
I surely set the clock to ticking
        G                   Bm
Summer child, who couldn't know
      Bm                F#m G
What song they all were singing

Verse:
D            G     D          G
Stories they told, where the names were songs
D                  G      D            G
But different down south, they get the words all wrong
F#m          G
I could look deeper still
F#m         G
Wonder why blood was spilled
F#m   A          Bm       G
All along was I meant to build?
Em     A               Bm
In my dreams, I saw it all
Em          A     Bm  A  G
Scrawled across a cannonball

Chorus:
Bm              A
And if I didn't die
         Bm       F#m     G   A   D
I surely set the clock to ticking
        G                   Bm
Summer child, who couldn't know
      Bm                F#m G
What song they all were singing

Bridge:
F#m     G        A       Bm
Is this falling, is this flight?
F#m     G       A        C
Must it be from a great height?
D                  A
Will we sing that sweet reprise
D                  G
Will I see through different eyes
F#m     G      Bm  A   G
Oh will I grow old and wise?

Instrumental:
Bm G D A
Bm G D A

Bridge 2:
Bm              G            D  A
Is it true that summer's over?
Bm                   G           D  A
I thought this would go much slower
Bm                  G              D  A
Can't you feel the weirwoods weeping?
Bm                 G            D  A
Where the past was always sleeping

Solo:
Bm A D G (x8)

Chorus 2:
G                         D
Sometimes you'll dream of home
G                  Bm          A
And you'll look to all of your idols
G              D
But we all are grey
G               Bm            A
We can do great good or great evil
G                       D
And all of those you've loved
G            Bm           A
In the dust, they will be waiting
G                     D
To teach you where to go
G                 Bm     A
When the future's accelerating

Bridge:
F#m       G         A      Bm
What will chase the cold away?
F#m    G         A         C
Is it games that rich men play?
D                  A
Will we sing that sweet reprise
D             G
Will I see it for the trees?
F#m      G           Bm  A   G
Strength lies in the darkest roots
    Em        A        Bm
And not every story is true
Em        A        D
Not every story is true

Outro:
Gm D Gm
Bm F#m G
