Sons Of Summer - from Playing Possum 1975
Em
It makes me smile
G C
To think of what we dreamed of
F
Where are those sons of summer now
With their wild-haired women in their
patchwork gowns
C
Who could laugh the lights away
G
Nights on the beach and bay
F
Am
The course on farms
C
And the course in the bar
Em F
Sweet smokin' in the back of the car
Am C Em F
Always the first time shines to last like a morning star
Em F
Like a morning star
Em G C
It's been a while since the last time we were dancing
F
Where are those sons of summer now
With their long-limbed ladies who all knew how
C
To chase the blues away
G
I've got the blues today
F
Am C
Your ivy days and your clubhouse ways
Em F
Wine mug nights when the music played
Am C Em F
Love that is real will not fade away like a morning star
Em F
Like a morning star
C
F
Where are those sons of summer now
The winter has come
C
And you don't know how to turn your
Dreams into coal
G
Your books won't hold you
F
Am
The woods get cold
C
And I feel too old
Em F
I begin to questioning your schoolboy soul
Am C
Clever remarks that once won my heart
Em
When the fire won't light
F
Will they lose their spark
C F
And I can't help but get a little bit blue
C F
Thinking about the precious nothing we once knew
C F
