Verse 1 

 C 
The sum-mer wind, came blow-in' in   
             Dm 
From     a - cross the sea  
                                            C 
It lingered there to touch your hair and    walk with me 
C 
All sum-mer long we sang a song 
             F                      Dm 
And then we  strolled that gol-den  sand 
    C              Dm          G                   C 
Two  sweet-hearts           and     the             sum-mer wind 

Verse 2 

 C 
Like painted kites, those days and nights, 
             Dm 
They went    fly-in' by 
                                            C  
The world was new be-neath a blue      um - brel - la sky 
C  
Then soft-er than a pi-per man  
             F                      Dm  
One          day it     called to   you 
    C              Dm          G                   C  
I    lost    you,           I       lost you to the sum-mer wind 

Verse 3 

D 
The aut-umn wind and the win-ter winds,  
           Em 
They have  come and gone 
                                                 D 
And still the days, those lone-ly days, they go  on and on 
 D                                      
And guess who sighs his lul-la-bies  
         G                        Em 
Through  nights that nev-er       end 
   D         Em     A         D 
My fick-le  friend,      the  sum-mer  wind 

Ending 

Em    A          D 
           The   sum-mer wind 
          Warm   sum-mer wind 
Mmm,      the    sum-mer wind
