Dusty Springfield – Summer Is Over chords

Summer Is Over - by Dusty Springfield

  (Tom Springfield / Clive Westlake)

Cool song from the sixties which beautifully transports the
melancholy mood at the end of the warm season. Could have
been a tune from a James Bond or Quentin Tarantino movie.

This is the capo free version in the original key. If you must
have a capo, use the app to transpose the song 4 halftones
down and put the capo in the 4th fret.

Rhythm is three-four time.

Intro:    G#m   C#  G#m G#m  (2x)


     G#m       C#            G#mThe night runs away with the day
     G#m           C#           G#mThe grass that was green is now hay
     C#m       G#m            E       EbThe world goes around without even a sound
       G#m            C#       G#mAnd it looks like the summer is over

     G#m         C#          G#mThe rains tumble down in the sky
      G#m           C#            G#mYoung swallows have learned how to fly
     C#m             G#m          E         EbThe leaves that were green are no longer so green
        G#m           C#        G#mAnd it looks like the summer is over

    E           F#        B            C#The sun and the moon take turns in the sky
     E            F#        BThe days drift on by too soon
Bb7             Ebm         G#7          C#m  The meadows are kissed by a cool autumn mist
                 EbFar away now is June

     G#m       C#        G#mThe birds fly away to the sun
    G#m              C#            G#mThe leaves touch the ground one by one
     C#m          G#m         E     EbThe breeze hurries by without even goodbye
       G#m            C#       G#mAnd it looks like the summer is over

    E           F#        B            C#The sun and the moon take turns in the sky
     E            F#        BThe days drift on by too soon
Bb7             Ebm         G#7          C#m  The meadows are kissed by a cool autumn mist
                 EbFar away now is June

     G#m       C#        G#mThe birds fly away to the sun
    G#m              C#            G#mThe leaves touch the ground one by one
     C#m          G#m         E     EbThe breeze hurries by without even goodbye
       G#m            C#       G#mAnd it looks like the summer is over

       G#m            C#       G#mAnd it looks like the summer is over
