[Intro]
C#m, E, G#m (x2)
C#m E
Ramblin’, Where to begin
G#m
I tasted Summer on your peppery skin
C#m E
Been Saved, The warmer the Wave
G#m
I felt her slip into a water grave
[Bridge]
C#m E G#m
Ooh, La da di daaaa
C#m
La Da di da di da
E G#m
Da da daaa [Second time, go to Chorus]

C#m E
My girl, linen and curls
G#m
Lips parting like a flag all unfurled
C#m E
She’s Grand, The bend of her hand
G#m
Digging deep into the sweep of her sand [Bridge]
[Chorus]
B C#m
And summer arrives
B C#mh
With a length of Lights
B C#m A
Summer blows away
E G#m
And quietly gets swallowed by a wave [Intro]*
