Summertime

Louis Armstrong

      Am    Bb7                      Am    E7   Am   A7  
Summertime,        And the living is easy
         Dm        F7                        F#m7  B7     E7     
Fish are jumpin'        And the cotton is    high

Am                  Bb7                           Am        D7       
Oh, your daddy's    rich     And your mama's good lookin'
    C          Am       D7    E7          Am    D7     Bm7  E7   
So hush little baby    now    don't you   cry



              Am      Bb7                         Am      E7    Am   A7  
One of these mornin's        You're gonna rise up singin'
             Dm                F7                   F#m7  B7      E7    
Then you'll spread your wings       And take to the sky
              Am         Bb7                  Am        D7         
But til that mornin'        Ain't nothin' can harm you
            C             Am      D7    E7           Am      Bb7     Am   Bb7   Am  ...
With your daddy And your mammy          standin'     by

Versión 3 - Summertime (Letra y acordes)
Intro: D5 B5 D A Em/B G

                   D
When the lights go out
                      A
Will you take me with you
                          Em/B
And carry all this broken bone
                          G
Through six years down in crowded rooms
                  D
Highways I called home
                            A
Something I can't know till now
                          Em/B
Until you pick me off the ground
                         G
With brick in hand, your lip gloss smile

You're scraped up knees

Refrão:
G             A         D           A Bm
And if you stay I would even wait all night
G      A               Bm
Or until your heart explodes out
        G          A           D          A Bm
Until we find our way in the dark and out of harm
     G                A
You can run away with me
                   D
Any time you want

                       A
Terrified of what I'd be
                         Em/B
As a kid from what I've seen
                       G
Every single day when people shot
                    D
And put the pieces back together
                     A
Just to smash them down
                            Em/B
Turn my headphones up real loud
                          G
I don't think I need them now

'Cause you stop the noise

Refrão:
G             A         D           A Bm
And if you stay I would even wait all night
G      A               Bm
Or until your heart explodes out
        G          A           D          A Bm
Until we find our way in the dark and out of harm
        G             A
You can run away with me
                   D    Bm
Any time you want
                   D    Bm
Anytime you want

Anytime you want

Solo 2x: G A D A Bm G A Bm

Refrão:
G             A         D           A Bm
And if you stay I would even wait all night
G      A               Bm
Or until your heart explodes out
        G          A           D          A Bm
Until we find our way in the dark and out of harm
     G                A
You can run away with me
         Bm
You can run any time you want
     G                A
You can run away with me
                   D
Any time you want
