Verse 1:
     Em                                                   Am
In another younger day I could dream the time away in the universe inside my room
        B7                                      Em
and the world was really mine from June till September.
          Em                                                 Am
And if it wasn't really so I was lucky not to know and I was lucky not to wonder why
           B7                          Em
'cause the summer time is all that I remember.

Bridge:
  Em                           C
A summer fly was buzzin' every night when I was young
       B7                               Em
in the gentle world my childlike senses knew.
        Em                               C
And the world was just my cousin and the wind was just the tongue
       B7                               Em         Em
in the voice my lonely moments listened to.

Verse 2:
      Em                                                      Am
And I look at me today all the dreams have gone away and I am where I never thought I'd be
       B7                                       Em
seein' things I never thought I'd see happen to me.
      Em                                                          Am
And I lie awake at night till the darkness turns to light hearin' voices callin' out my name
        B7                                 Em
calling over and again the same message to me.

Chorus:
        Em                                      C
Cryin': who's your partner, who's your darlin', who's your baby now,
B7                                Em
who wakes up at night to pull you in?
Em                                    C
It don't matter, you'll just make him lonely anyhow,
B7                             Em
don't know why you even try to win.

Interlude:
Em        Am        B7         Em
Em        Am        B7         Em

Chorus: (1 Ring/Chord)
        Em                                      C
Cryin': who's your partner, who's your darlin', who's your baby now,
B7                                Em
who wakes up at night to pull you in?
Em                                    C
It don't matter, you'll just make him lonely anyhow,
B7                             Em
don't know why you even try to win.

End-Chorus: (Full Beat again)
        Em                                      C
Cryin': who's your partner, who's your darlin', who's your baby now,
B7                                Em
who wakes up at night to pull you in?
Em                                    C
It don't matter, you'll just make him lonely anyhow,
B7                             Am     B7     Em             Em
don't know why you even try to win.
