A         D      G           A    G  D  A  
Rusty green summer's almost dawn 
          D       G         A    G  D  A  
I see winds clouding up the sun 
       G          A   D  
and I can't find my way 
G     A      D    G  D  A  
everything's gray 
  
          D      G     A    G  D  A  
rusty green eyes on my mind 
          D    G          A    G  D  A  
memories someplace out of time  
          G        A     D  
all the things we would do  
G        A   D  
I still love you 
  
        G        A   D  
It's a sad song to sing 
G   A         D  
painted rusty green 
    G            D            A  
of green fading picture of spring
