[Intro]
F* C* N.C.
F* C* N.C.
[Verse 1]
F C
So, summer's on the outs,
G Dm
Cicadas swim around the house,
F C
Crickets clicking down the block,
Am G
We are on an early morning walk.
[Verse 2]
F C
No one's up, and no cars on the street,
G Dm
Hiding from an unrelenting heat,
F C
Sun is climbing out from underneath,
Am Dm G
Lighting up and roasting tired leaves.
[Chorus]
F C
G Dm
Green to gold, going green to gold,
F C
Am G
Green to gold, going green to gold.
[Interlude]
F C G Dm
F C Am G
[Verse 3]
F C
A breeze blew in and autumn came to town,
G Dm
Branches bare, the leaves rest on the ground,
F C
All that summer worked to bud and bloom,
Am G
Only to be swept up by a broom.
[Verse 4]
F C
An uninvited frost formed overnight,
G Dm
By early afternoon, we're losing light,
F C
Now they're saying two, three feet of snow,
Am G
The reading dips to ten degrees below.
[Verse 5]
F C
Morning's bright, the ancient ice withdraws,
G Dm
I take one step and the ground begins to thaw,
F C
Tiny grasses spring up 'round my shoe,
Am G
Eager bits of green start peeking through.
[Verse 6]
F C
Seedlings turn to chutes and shoot up high,
G Dm
Thunderclouds hold hostage summer sky,
F C
Concrete's hot with fire it can't contain,
Am G
We sit in front of fans and wait for rain.
[Verse 7]
F C
And just like that, summer's on the outs,
G Dm
Cicadas swim around the house,
F C
Crickets clicking down the block,
Am G
While we are on an early morning walk.
[Chorus]
F C
G Dm
Green to gold, going green to gold,
F C
Am G
Green to gold, going green to gold,
F C
G Dm
Green to gold, going green to gold,
F C
Am G
Green to gold, going green to gold.
[Interlude]
F C G Dm
F C Am G
F C G Dm
F C Am G
[Chorus]
F C
G Dm
Green to gold, going green to gold,
F C
Am G
Green to gold, going green to gold,
F C
G Dm
Green to gold, going green to gold,
F C
Am G
Green to gold, going green to gold.
