Summer Wind

Lyle Lovett

 CG7
 The summer wind came blowing in across the sea,

 C
It lingered there to touch your hair and walk with me.

 C7FFm
 All summer long we sang a song and strolled the golden sand.

 CG7CA7
 Two sweethearts  and  the summer wind.         

 DA7
 Like painted kites the days and nights went flying by.

 D
The world was new beneath a blue umbrella sky.

 D7
Then, softer than a piper man

 GGm
One day it called to you.

 DA7DB7
    I lost you  to the  summer wind.          

 E
 The autumn wind, the winter winds

 B7
Have come and gone

And still the days, the lonely days

 E
Go  on and on

 E7
And guess who sighs his lullabies

 AAm
Through nights that never  end.

 EB7E
   My fick-le   friend,  the summer wind,

 EE
 The summer wind, the summer wind.

Alternate tag
 EB7E
   My fick-le   friend,  the summer wind

 EB7E
   My fick-le   friend,  the summer wind

 EB7E
   My fick-le   friend,  the summer wind

____________________

Frank sang it in E-F#-G# Lyle does Eb-F-G This is a little easier for me at
C-D-E. For fun try in fast in cut time it sounds pretty good but it makes a
very short song.
