                          ITALIAN SUMMER
                           STEVIE NICKS
 
CAPO: 1st Fret
 
INTRO:  Dm (Strummed Quickly then stopped abruptly) 
  Then  F  Dm  Bb  C C7 C
 
VERSE: 
F
The rose stood out
Dm
Red against the golden wall
Bb                                                   
The sun comes through the silken drapes
C                   C7   
The room begins to glow      
F                    Dm
All in cream-colored ivories
           Bb                                    
And soft yellows you say hello
 C                        C7
Put down that guitar and handed me a rose


CHORUS:
 F
At the end of the Italian summer
Dm                          Bb
It rains fast and it rains hard
                              C
The wind blows right through you
              C7
It tears you apart

 F
Ohh its so romantic
Dm
Hey its so soulful
Bb
The rain falls down
          C      C7
And the thunder rolls

 
VERSE:
 F
The sun fades out
           Dm
And the mountains grow tall
Bb                          C      C7
The mists rush in and they take it all
          F                 Dm
From the islands you see Li Galli and Capri
Bb
I remember it all 
 C                       C7          C   C7
Love was everywhere you just had to fall 

 
CHORUS:
 F
At the end of the Italian summer
Dm                          Bb
It rains fast and it rains hard
                              C
The wind blows right through you
               C7
It tears you apart

 F
Ohh its so romantic
Dm
Hey its so soulful
Bb
The rain falls down
          C      C7
And the thunder rolls


INTERLUDE: Am  Bb  Am  Bb   Dm  C  C7
 
CHORUS:
 F
At the end of the Italian summer
Dm                          Bb
It rains fast and it rains hard
                              C
The wind blows right through you
              C7
It tears you apart

 F
Ohh its so romantic
Dm
Hey its so soulful
Bb
The rain falls down
          C      C7
And the thunder rolls


CHORUS:
 F

The wind blows right through you
              C7
It tears you apart
