[Intro]
Gm C x2
F Gm7 Dm Bb Csus4 F x2
[Verse]
F Gm7
She said I cannot tell you why, she said I'm in a rush
Dm Bb Csus4 F
There are softer dreams for you to think about now love
F Gm7
Things that you have seen this night that run by that the river's flow
Dm Bb Csus4 F
I can't use you if you're in the flame, I'm a growin' old
[Chorus]
Am Bb F Dm
And no this is not the summer's dream she said
F Dm Bb Csus4 F
It's just the drying of the lawns that want to keep us here
Dm Bb Csus4 F
[Verse]
F Gm7
Well I've said I've sailed the frozen corners of the dark Atlantic Sea
Dm Bb Csus4 F
And I drifted on the waves and the mirage beneath
F Gm7
And never have I felt such numb and pointless searchin' truth
Dm Bb Csus4 F
As when I set my eyes and torched the plans on the mark of you
[Chorus]
Am Bb F Dm
And no this is not the summer's dream she said
F Dm Bb Csus4 F
It's just the drying of the lawns they're going to leave us here
F Gm7 Dm Bb Csus4 F
[Verse]
F Gm7
She said you follow me like sheep that think this king could do some harm
Dm Bb Csus4 F
But I tell you boy I'm frightened still with a sister's arm
F Gm7
I set my eyes upon the shore whenever you wake up
Dm Bb Csus4 F
I'm leavin' because you don't fear what you're dreamin' of
[Chorus]
Am Bb F Dm
And no this is not the summer's dream she said
F Dm Bb Csus4 F
It's just the drying of the lawns they're going to leave us here
Dm Bb Csus4 F
[Verse]
F Gm7
But I will stand down in the hallway with no thought to leave the set
Dm Bb Csus4 F
Of a movie I will sure as hell not end just yet
F Gm7
If evenings are for romance then this mornin' is for us
Dm Bb Csus4 F
It will never end and our last dream is gonna seal this house
[Chorus]
Am Bb F Am
And no this is not the summer's dream I said
F Dm Bb F
It's just the drying of the lawns they're going to leave us here
F Dm Bb C F
Oh it's the drying of the lawns they're going to leave us here
