The Children of the summer's end
Em (022000@1)                     AmGathered (x02210@1)in the dampened grass
   Bm (x24432@1)                          BbWe (x1333x@1)played Our songs and felt the London sky
C (x32010@1)                         GResting (320003@1)on our hands it was God's land
       C (x32010@1)                     G (320003@1)   Dm7
It was ragged and naive it was Heaven

G (320003@1)                        Dm7
Touch, We touched the very soul
   Em (022000@1)                   AmOf (x02210@1)holding each and every life
   Bm (x24432@1)                       Bb (x1333x@1) 
We claimed the very source of joy ran through
   C (x32010@1)                        GIt (320003@1)didn't, but it seemed that way
  C (x32010@1)                         G (320003@1)Eb (x43121@3)CI (x32010@1)kissed a lot of people that day

C (x32010@1)            Em (022000@1)
Oh, to capture just one drop 
   C7 (x32310@1)         Am7 (x02010@1)              F (133211@1)
Of all the ecstasy that swept that afternoon
   G (320003@1)              F (133211@1)            CTo (x32010@1)paint that love upon a white balloon
                    Em (022000@1)           C7 (x32310@1)    
And fly it from the toppest top of all the tops 
     Am7 (x02010@1)            FThat (133211@1)man has pushed beyond his brain
  G (320003@1)          F (133211@1)                C (x32010@1)    
Satori must be something just the same
 
   D (xx0232@1)                    Dmaj7We (xx0222@1)scanned the skies with rainbow eyes 
    D7 (xx0212@1)            D6 (xx04xx@1)            G6 (320000@1)And saw machines of every shape and size
   A (x02220@1)                G (320003@1)             D (xx0232@1) 
We talked with tall Venusians passing through
                   Dmaj7And (xx0222@1)Peter tried to climb aboard 
        D7 (xx0212@1)              D6 (xx04xx@1)       
But the Captain shook his head
     G6 (320000@1)     
And away they soared
A (x02220@1)                  G (320003@1)           DClimbing (xx0232@1)through the ivory vibrant cloud
A (x02220@1)                 G (320003@1)             DSomeone (xx0232@1)passed some bliss among the crowd
       A (x02220@1)                G (320003@1)
And We walked back to the road, unchained

WEIRD BIT
