There are two guitars in this song
The electric guitar you hear strumming in the verse
is playing something slightly different.

These are the chords that the acoustic 
is playing.

I used the lyrics from the version on Myles Kennedy's Myspace.
I don't know if they're different than the album.

Also, the song is played in 
Drop D tuning, but its not really necessary
if you want to play the song.

  D        
Flowers placed
        Am
At the foot of the grave
       G              D
Of the one we lost forever


 D
Jesus please
         Am
Let her soul rest in peace
          G                    D
And make way a new angel's in heaven


       D          Am
Summergirl went away
       G             D 
Everything has been dying
       D          Am
Summergirl went away
         G            D
And the sun doesn't shine


D
All alone
        Am
In the house we called home
         G                       D
And the walls still echo of her laughter


       D 
We'd dream of a world
      Am
Far away we'll never know
           G                     D
Since she left i don't dream anymore....


       D          Am
Summergirl went away
       G             D 
Everything has been dying
       D          Am
Summergirl went away
         G            D
And the sun doesn't shine

       D          Am
Summergirl went away
       G             D 
Everything has been dying
       D          Am
Summergirl went away
         G                          D*   G   D*
