Summer Side of Life - Gordon Lightfoot


intro   D  G  G9 (xx0005)  2x


D                      A                      G              D
  He came down through fields of grain on the summer side of life
A     G        D
  His love was ripe
D               A                G              D
  There was no illussions on the summer side of life
A      G      D    F#
  Only tenderness


           Bm  A   G    F#
And if you saw him nooow
           Bm  A     G                  G (xx0787)       D
You wonder why-ahahy-ahahy he would cry   the whole day long


break   D  G  G9 (xx0005)  2x


There was young girls everywhere on the summer side of life
They talked all night
To the young men that they knew on the summer side of life
Goin' off to fight


           Bm  A    G    F#
And if you saw them nooow
           Bm  A     G                    G (xx0787)       D
You wonder why-ahahy-ahahy they would cry   the whole day long


break   D  G  G9 (xx0005)     D  G  F#m  Em


He came down through fields of grain on the summer side of life
He prayed all night
Then he walked in to a house where love had been misplaced
His chance to waste


           Bm  A   G    F#
And if you saw him nooow
           Bm  A     G                  G (xx0787)       D
You wonder why-ahahy-ahahy he would cry   the whole day long


break   D  G    D  F#


           Bm  A   G       F#            Hm   A      G      F#  |4
And if you saw him noooow,    you wonder why--ahahy--ahahy      |x
