She doesn't see the coming fall,

She doesn't show no fear at all,

Bring on autumn moon or the driving rain,

[Bridge]
Em A D G
I will wait in the silence until she returns,
Em A D G
To melt the frozen prison round this fool who never learns,
Em A D G
Every living thing that's born must have its end,
Em A D G
What winter takes away, spring brings back again.
[Chorus]
Everything is gonna be alright when summer comes,
The days will wash away the nights when summer comes,
We will open up our bodies to the warming of the sun.
When summer comes
[Instrumental]
G, A, D (x4)
D, A, G, A (x2)
[Verse 2]
Summer doesn't feel the coming frost,
And she doesn't yield to pain or loss,
Death where is thy victory where is thy sting,
When every year we hear the birds of summer sing.
[Chorus]
Everything is gonna be alright when summer comes,
We will walk into the light when summer comes,
We will open up our bodies to the warming of the sun.
[Coda]
G D
Everything is gonna be alright when summer comes,
G D A Bm A
We will open up our bodies,
G D A
To the warming of the sun,
When summer comes.
[Outro]
G, A, D (x4)
