Sons Of Summer chords by Carly Simon

Em
It makes me smile
    C
To think of what we dreamed of
F
Where are those sons of summer now
With their wild-haired women in their
patchwork gowns
      C
Who could laugh the lights away
                     G
Nights on the beach and bay

F

Am
The course on farms
C
And the course in the bar
  F
Sweet smokin' in the back of the car
F
Always the first time shines to last like a morning star
F
Like a morning star

C
It's been a while since the last time we were dancing
F
Where are those sons of summer now
With their long-limbed ladies who all knew how
     C
To chase the blues away
               G
I've got the blues today

F

C
Your ivy days and your clubhouse ways
F
Wine mug nights when the music played
F
Love that is real will not fade away like a morning star
           F
Like a morning star

C

F
Where are those sons of summer now
The winter has come
                            C
And you don't know how to turn your
Dreams into coal
                  G
Your books won't hold you

F

Am
The woods get cold
        C
And I feel too old
F
I begin to questioning your schoolboy soul
C
Clever remarks that once won my heart
           Em
When the fire won't light
            F
Will they lose their spark
    F
And I can't help but get a little bit blue
F
Thinking about the precious nothing we once knew
