[Verse]
A C#m F#m
Summer on, bring on the buzzing past
A C#m F#m F#m
Summer on, bring on august trash
A
The sweat of Johnny Cash
C#m
The hot-knife to the hash
F#m F#m
The girls in the grass
A C#m F#m
Summer, bring it on, oh, at last
[Pre-chorus]
F#m
Days that glow and ignite
D
And explode into nights
F#m
Nights that scream for morphine
Dmaj7 Dmmaj7
And swim into the days
Dmaj9 F#m
Days of whisky and cake
D
Nights of make-believe
F#m
Days you don't believe
D
Nights of faith in flames
A
And not consumed by flames
[Chorus]
D
Ah still, summer's always going
A
Turning everything Canada-grey
D
And I will miss all the not-knowing
A
Of those summer days
F#m
But I swear I will take morphine and swim
D
If you take one more look at him
A
Ah, those yellow days
[Verse]
C#m F#m F#m
Bring on the liquid smoke
A C#m
Summer on, night's a blindfold
F#m F#m A
Stay close, then this bird has flown
C#m
The bullet hits the bone
F#m F#m
And it's all filmed on a phone
A C#m F#m
Summer's getting on, oh, stay close
[Pre-chorus]
F#m
Days glowing, igniting
D
Exploding into nights
F#m
Nights, "I'm cold", I'm here
Dmaj7 Dmmaj7
"Hold me closer to the day"
Dmaj9 F#m
Days it's in your blood
D
Nights you never dreamed
F#m
(It's supposed to be a dream)
D
Nights lost in the flood
A
And not lost in the flood
[Chorus]
D
Ah still, summer's always going
A
Turning everything Canada-grey
D
And I will miss all the not-knowing
A
Of those summer days
F#m
But I swear I will take morphine and swim
D
If you take one more look at him
A C#m F#m F#m
Ah, those yellow days
[Outro]
A C#m F#m F#m
Ah, those yellow days
A C#m F#m F#m
Ah, those yellow days
