NOTES:
I've not found a version of this song on the internet, so I decided to create my own.
This is an easily-playable, strum-along version of the song, with easy chords for beginners.
Easy embellishments are adding/removing a 5th on the G chord, a 7th on the Em chord and a sus4 on the D.
If folk tend to like this easy version I'll look at transcribing the more advanced/embellished version.

Disclaimer:
This is my own interpretation of the song 'Second Summer Of Love' by 'Danny Wilson.'
It is deliberately made simple as an aid for beginner guitarists, and should be taken in that manner.
I accept no responsibility for anyone getting laughed at when performing this live, due to inaccurate
chords or lyrics! I've gigged this exact version live and got a cheer. So there!
