Her Name Was Summer chords by Ryan Hurd

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
D                                A
Picture a girl and she still ain't ready
      G
You're waiting outside in your '02 Chevy
      D                         A
Her silhouette when the sun goes down
      G
The only real thing in a bleach blonde town
        D        A                         G
Is the way you feel when you're looking into her eyes
                          D          A                      G
And you're wishing that you could steal just a little more time

Chorus:
           D                                A
Picture a girl with a smile, make you fall too fast
   G
Get high on a feeling that you know won't last
D                                 A
Hits you in the heart like a crashing wave
G
Gone too soon, yeah but you still taste
   D                       A
The slow steady of a last, long kiss
G
Feel the touch of her sun-soaked skin
       D                          A                G
You smile at it now but you still can't help but wonder
              D
Her name was Summer


Verse 2:
    D                     A
Her name was Summer, last name love
    G                           A
It wasn't long but for three short months you were
 D                          A
All wrapped up, close as you can get
         G                            A
Yeah, you can move on but you can't forget
   D         A                     G      A
A girl like that and you know you never will
                       D          A                  G
'Cause every time that you look back and hear that song


Chorus:
                      D                           A
You still picture a girl with a smile, make you fall too fast
   G                                  A
Get high on a feeling that you know won't last
  D                              A
Hits you in the heart like a crashing wave
  G                       A
Gone too soon, yeah but you still taste
     D                  A
The slow steady of a last, long kiss
  G                          A
Feel the touch of her sun-soaked skin
       D                              D              G
You smile at it now but you still can't help but wonder
                    D
Yeah, her name was Summer
      A         G
Her name was Summer


Bridge:
D                                  A
Her name was Summer, she was cool like rain
           G                            A
She was every single second 'til September came
            D                              A
She was everything you needed and everything you didn't
            G
When you think about the good ol' days


Chorus:
                D                                A
You picture a girl with a smile, make you fall too fast
    G                                A
Get high on a feeling that you know won't last
  D                                A
Hits you in the heart like a crashing wave
  G                         A
Gone too soon, yeah but you still taste
     D                       A
The slow steady of a last, long kiss
G                            A
Feel the touch of her sun-soaked skin
     D                            A                 G
You smile at it now but you still can't help but wonder
                     D
Yeah, her name was Summer
A             G
Her name was Summer
                D   A  G
