Mrs Hartley's Washing Day
Written by Alistair Griffin

G             Em7             C(add9)        D
The rain goes on and you're a million miles away
G               Em7        C(add9)   D
It feels like February, it should be May
C(add9)                D         
You try to write the perfect love song
G               Em7
It's just too late
C(add9)      D                 G
It's in your stars, it must be fate

G            Em7                 C(add9)      D
Bring on the Sun and live those crazy summer nights
G             Em7            C(add9)               D
Bring on the Moon and dance until there's no more light
G           Em7                C(add9)       D
Forget the rain and find your secret summer place
G            Em7              C(add9)           D
Bring on the Sun and put the smile back on your face


So put the work to bed and the kids on ice
Whip up the summer fires, always someone nice
You try to tell her that you love her
So it went wrong
Just tell her summer won't be long


Bring on the Sun and live those crazy summer nights
Bring on the Moon and dance until there's no more light
Forget the rain and find your secret summer place
Bring on the Sun and put the smile back on your face

C(add9)       D               G               Em7
And when you go she will be waiting there for you
C(add9)       D                 G              Em7          
You kiss her lips and hold her like you wanted to
C(add9)             D                     G            Em7
You've found your place and this girl's heart is truly won
C(add9)          D                  G
The rain's gone home, bring on the Sun


Bring on the Sun and live those crazy summer nights
Bring on the Moon and dance until there's no more light
Forget the rain and find your secret summer place
Bring on the Sun and put the smile back on your face

Bring on the Sun
Bring on the Sun
Bring on the Sun
