A5         E5      G5
I awoke today and found 
                  E5     A5
the frost perched on the town
   E5           A5
It hovered in a frozen sky 
        G5              A5
then it gobbled summer down
D5                  C5
When the sun turns traitor cold 
    D5                 C5              E5         E5
and all the trees are shivering in a naked row

  A5                G5
I get the urge for going
                    A5  A5 A5
But I never seem to go
  G5       D5        A5
I get the urge for going
         G5      D5        A5
When the meadow grass is turning brown
G5     D5       A5                          E5      A5
Summertime is falling down and winter is closing in

  A5        E5     G5
I had me a man in summertime
              E5      A5
He had summer-colored skin
    E5          A5    
And not another girl in town
   E5                    A5
My darling's heart could win
    D5                    C5
But when the leaves fell on the ground
D5                 C5
Bully winds came around and
                      E5          E5
Pushed them face down in the snow

   A5                G5
He got the urge for going
                    A5  A5 A5
But I never seem to go
  G5       D5        A5
I get the urge for going
         G5      D5         A5
When the meadow grass was turning brown
G5     D5       A5                           E5      A5
Summertime is falling down and winter was closing in

        A5           E5  G5
Now the warriors of win ter 
                 E5         A5
They gave a cold triumphant shout
    E5                A5    
And all that stays is dying 
             E5               A5
And all that lives is gettin' out
D5                C5
See the geese in chevron flight 
D5            C5           E5            E5
Flapping and racing on before the snow

     A5                G5
They got the urge for going
                         A5      A5 A5
And they got the wind so they go
     G5       D5        A5
They get the urge for going
         G5      D5        A5
When the meadow grass is turning brown
G5     D5       A5                          E5      A5
Summertime is falling down and winter is closing in

     A5                 E5       G5
I'll ply the fire with kindling now
                          E5    A5
I'll pull the blankets up to my chin
              E5      A5
I'll lock the vagrant winter out and
     G5                  A5
I'll bolt my wanderings in
    D5                 C5
I'd like to call back summertime
D5                 C5            E5          E5
Have her stay for just another month or so

          A5                G5
But she?s got the urge for going
                          A5  A5 A5
So I guess she?ll have to go
    G5        D5        A5
She gets the urge for going
         G5      D5        A5
When the meadow grass is turning brown
    G5       E5         A5
And all her empire is closing down
G5     D5       A5                          E5      A5
Summertime is falling down and winter is closing in

      A5                G5
And I get the urge for going
         G5      D5        A5
When the meadow grass is turning brown
    G5     D5       A5
And summertime is falling down.
