VERSE 1
Swallows leaving for the sun
Tells me september has begun

Winter rain is waiting, for it’s throne
Where all the other summer birds have flown
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/jacco_gardner/the_end_of_august_tab.html ]
CHORUS
C#m          E
But here’s the sun
C#m        E
It shines again
C#m         E
Not for the last time
C#m     G      F#m     F              Em
But the golden days of summertime are gone

VERSE 2
Cold wind moves the autumn leaves
Blowing winter in my sleeves

Nights are colder than before
Shadows wait for me once more

CHORUS
C#m            E
But here’s the sun
C#m        E
It shines again
C#m         E
Not for the last time
C#m     G      F#m     F              Em
But the golden days of summertime are gone

CHORUS END RIFF

Dm         E
The end of August
Dm         E
It strikes again
Dm          E
Not for the last time
Dm      G      F#m     F              E
But the golden days of summertime are gone
    G      F#m     F              E
The golden days of summertime are gone

Am
