Summer Of 42

Em Em* C C* G Gmaj7 C C* Em Em* What are the things you wanted? The same as anyone? C C* Just a hand to hold a little after all is said and done G Gmaj7 And the days were long and open ‘cause I had a view of you C C* The summer of '42 when I was in love with you Em Em* We counted stars above us, we dreamed of Xanadu C C* We'd sneak off to the desert, the sand over your fancy shoes G Gmaj7 The first day that I met you I wrote down in my book C C* I am in love with you, I am in love with you G Gmaj7 You... C C* I am in love with you G Gmaj7 You... C C* I am in love with you, I fell in love with you Em Em* The days were gone asunder, the chaos of the war C C* Made men of everybody but our memories I adore G Gmaj7 We named our favourite sunset but I remember very few C C* The summer of '42 when I was in love with you Em Em* But years have turned to ages and I know you’ve someone new C C* I looked for you with every breath, a soldier wrecked with solitude G Gmaj7 I climbed to the highest mountain and I shouted to our view Chorus/Outro C C* Em Em* C C* I was in love with you, I was in love with you... G Gmaj7 I was in love with you... C C* In love with you G Gmaj7 You... C C* I am in love with you G Gmaj7 You... C C* I am in love with you, I am in love with you G Gmaj7 You... C C* I am in love with you G Gmaj7 You... C C* I am in love with you, I am in love with you (Repeat and fade)
