For the verses, strum over the intro riff chords.
Notes in brackets denote the bass note of each chord:
Verse 1:
[(D)] On certain[(G)] Sundays in No[(F#)]vember when the [(E)]weather bothers[(D)] me
I empty[(G)] drawers of other [(F#)]summers where my[(E)] shadows used to b[(D)]e
And she is s[(G)]tanding by the [(F#)]water as her [(E)]smile begins to c[(D)]url
In this or [(G)]any other [(F#)]summer she is s[Em]omething altogether different
[Em]Never just an ordinary[(D)] girl ([(G)]riff)[(F#)] [(E)]
Verse 2:
[(D)] And in the[(G)] evenings on Long[(F#)] Island when the[(E)] colours start to f[(D)]ade
She wears a[(G)] silly yellow [(F#)]hat that someone [(E)]gave her when she stay[(D)]ed
I didn't[(G)] think that she r[(F#)]eturned it we left[(E)] New York in a wh[(D)]irl
Time e[(G)]xpands and then cont[(F#)]racts when you are [Em]spinning in the grips of
someone [Em]who is not an ordinary g[G]irl
Chorus 1:
When you s[A]leep you find your [D]mother in the nig[G]ht
But she [D]stays just out of [G]sight
So there [D]isn't any [F#m]sweetness in the d[A]reaming
[G] And when you w[A]ake the morning c[D]overs you with l[G]ight
And it m[D]akes you feel al[G]right
D F#m A Dsus2 (to riff)
But it's just the same hard candy you're remembering again
(intro riff once)
Verse 3:
[(D)] You send your l[(G)]over off to C[(F#)]hina then you [(E)]wait for her to c[(D)]all
You put your [(G)]girl up on a pe[(F#)]destal then you [(E)]wait for her to fa[(D)]ll
I put my [(G)]summer's back in a [(F#)]letter and I [(E)]hide it from the wor[(D)]ld
All the reg[(G)]rets you can't forg[(F#)]et are somehow [Em]pressed upon a picture
In the [Em]face of such an ordinary [G]girl
Chorus 2:
And when you s[A]leep you find your [D]mother in the nig[G]ht
But she [D]stays just out of [G]sight
So there [D]isn't any [F#m]sweetness in the d[A]reaming
[G] And when you w[A]ake the morning sh[D]owers you with l[G]ight
And it m[D]akes you feel al[G]right
But it's [D]just the same hard [F#m]candy you're rem[A]embering aga[D]in
Again,[G] again,[Em] agai[A]n
It's [D]just the same hard c[G]andy you're rem[A]embering ag[D]ain
Again,[G] again,[Em] agai[A]n
And it's [D]just the same hard c[G]andy you're rem[A]embering again

[(D)] Don't ask me[(C#)] to come around[(C)] then wait to[(G)] see if there's a spark
[(D)] Go ask her[(C#)] to come around[(C)] and see me [(G)]late after dark
[(D)] Don't ask me[(C#)] to come around[(C)] and make me [(G)]wait to see the spark
[(D)] Go ask her[(C#)] to come around[(C)] late and [(G)]see me after dark
