Til Summer Comes Around

Intro 3x: Am  F  G

Am           F                 G
Another long summer's come and gone,
Am           F              G
I don't know why it always ends this way,
Am              F                    G
The boardwalk's quiet and the carnival rides,
                   F              G
Are as empty as my broken heart tonight,

      F                 C
But i close my eyes and one more time,
              G
I'm spinnin' around and you're holding on tightly,
     F                C
The words came out, i kissed your mouth,
          G
No 4th of july has ever burned so brightly,
    F            C
You had to go, i understand,
         G
But you promised you'd be back again,
                F                   G
And so i wonder round this town,

Til summer comes around.

( Am  F  G ) (2x)

Am          F                      G
I got a job workin' at the old park pier,
Am         F                    G
And every summer now for 5 long years,
Am                                 F                              G
I grease the gears, fix the lights, tighten bolts, straighten the tracks,
                         F                   G
And i count the days til you just might come back,

           F                 C
But then i close my eyes and one more time,
            G
I'm spinnin' around and you're holding on tightly,
      F                C
The words came out, i kissed your mouth,
          G
No 4th of july has ever burned so brightly,
     F             C
You had to go, i understand,
        G
But you swore that you'd be back again,
                 F                G
And so im frozen in this town,

Til summer comes around.

Solo 5x: Am  F  G

          F                 C
Oh then i close my eyes and you and i,
             G
Stuck on the ferris wheel rockin' with the motion,
    F               C
And hand in hand we cried and laughed,
                 G
Knowin' that the earth belonged to us, girl, if only for a moment,
F           C               G
Baby i'd be back again, you whispered in my ear,
                               F             G
But now the winter wind is the only sound,
                  F               G
And everything is closin' down,

Til summer comes around,
