A Bm
The summertime's escaping, and the carnival's away,

And the sunshine is awaiting for another sunny day.

Breakers whisper to the shells upon the shore,
G A
And hear the seagulls they cry for more.
G A
And hear the gulls they cry for more.
A Bm
Good day to you sweet autumn, so gently you appear.

The summer fair she has grown old

These older days they move too slow.
