A Summer Wasting

E
Summer in winter
E
Winter in springtime
E
You heard the birds sing
E
Everything will be fine

Bm          E
I spent the summer wasting
Bm           E               A
The time was passed so easily
Bm         E
But if the summer's wasted
Bm            E               A
How come that I could feel so free
Bm          E
I spent the summer wasting
Bm          E              A
The sky was blue beyond compare
Bm     E
A photograph of myself
Bm       E
Is all I have to show for

A              D
Seven years of river walkways
A              D              Bm
Seven weeks of staying up all night

Bm          E
I spent the summer wasting
Bm           E                 A
The time was passed so pleasantly
Bm        E
Say cheerio to books now
Bm       E                    A
The only things I'll read are faces
Bm          E
I spent the summer wasting
Bm      E
Under a canopy of

A              D
Seven weeks of reading papers
A             D
Seven weeks of river walkways
A              D
Seven weeks of feeling guilty
A              D
Seven weeks of staying up all night

E
Summer in winter
E
Winter is springtime
E
You heard the bird say
E
Everything will be fine
