Intro:  D  

Verse 1: 

D             C#7                                C7  
 Summer soft, wakes you with a kiss, to start the morning off.  
B7                               G  
 In the midst of herself playing Santa Claus,  
           Em7     A7           D  
She brings gifts... through her breeze.  

D              C#7                              C7  
 Morning rain, gently plays her rhythms on your window pane.  
B7                              G  
 Giving you no clue of when she plans to change,  
         Em7   A7     D  
To bring rain, or sun-shine.  

Bridge 1:  

D                                   C#7  
 And so you wait to see what she'll do;  
      C7              B7  
Is it sun or rain for you?  
       G                    Em7  
But it breaks your heart in two,  
     A7       D    C  Bm A#  
When you find it's Oc-to-ber...  

D          Gm7   C7  
 And she's gone,  
          Gm7   C7  
And she's gone.  
         Dmaj7  Em7  
Summer's gone,  
       D    C   Bm  A#    Em7   A  
Taking with her sum-mer's play...  

Verse 2: 

D             C#7                              C7  
 Winter wind, whispers to you that he wants to be your friend.  
B7                                G  
 But not waiting for your answer, he begins,  
        Em7     A7           D  
Forcing dangers way with his breeze.  

D              C#7                             C7  
 Morning snow, plans to have a winter ball for you to throw.  
B7                                G  
 But just where or when, he never lets you know,  
        Em7      A7                D  
If it's snow, or clear days you'll find.  

Bridge 2:  

D                                   C#7  
 And so you wait to see what she'll do;  
      C7              B7  
Is it sun or rain for you?  
       G                    Em7  
But it breaks your heart in two,  
                 D      C  Bm A#  
'Cos you've been fooled by Ap-ril...
