	        (intro) Am C E  



Am       C 
Ramblin' where to begin 
Em                         G 
I taste the summer on your peppery skin 
Am             C 
Been saved the warmer the waves 
Em                   G 
I felt a slip into a watery grave 

   Am   C     Em   G        Am        C     Em   G 
Oh oh,  uh ho ho,     la de da de da, uh ho ho, 

Am       C 
My girl, linen and curls 
Em                  G 
Lips parting like a flag all unfurled 
Am              C 
She's grand the bend of her hand 
Em                                 G 
Digging deep into the sweep of the sand 

G      Am       Cmaj7 
Summer arrives (oh oh oh oh) 
Em               Am       Cmaj7 
with a length of lights  (oh oh oh oh) 
Em     Am    F 
Summer blows away 
    C            G              (intro)  Am  C  Em 
And quietly gets swallowed by a wave 
G 
It gets swallowed by a wave 

(intro)  Am  C  Em G 

Am         C 
Waylay the din of the day 
Em                   G 
Boats bobbing in the blue of the bay 
Am      C 
In deep far beneath 
Em                   G 
all the dead sailors Slowly slipping to sleep 

Am       C 
My girl, linen and curls 
Em                  G 
Lips parting like a flag all unfurled 
Am              C 
She's grand the bend of her hand 
Em                                 G 
Digging deep into the sweep of the sand 

G      Am       Cmaj7 
Summer arrives (oh oh oh oh) 
Em               Am       Cmaj7 
with a length of lights  (oh oh oh oh) 
Em     Am    F 
Summer blows away 
    C            G              (intro)  Am  C  Em 
And quietly gets swallowed by a wave 
G 
It gets swallowed by a wave
