C (w/Fig. 1)
(w/Riff A)
[G]I walked home [C]to the sun
[F]I couldn't ride [G]another one
[G]I thought a lot [C]along the lines[F] [G]
[G]And I've been fooled [C]about all night
[F]Wiped clean [G]always by midnight
[G]Wasn't it like an [C]idiot summer[F] [G]
[G]Wasn't it like an [C]idiot summer[F] [G]
W/Riff A. (slightly different)
[C]
[G]Three, four peaks [C]all I could see
[F]In the morning it's a [G]hundred and ten degrees
[G]But I like the [C]goddamn heat[F] [G]
[G]I lie awake [C]half the night
[F]Autumn is coming it [G]seems like it's in sight
[G]All the autumn that [C]you can see[F] [G]
[G]All the autumn that [C]you can see[F] [G]
C (w/Fig. 1) G C G C G C G
It's growing darker like the trees
[C]But if all the trees should [G]fall
All the bugs would crawl in my sleep[C] [G] [C] [G] [C] [G]

It's growing darker like the trees
But if all the trees should fall
All the bugs would crawl in my sleep
There's no telling I was so confused
I try but I can't help you choose
Tucson is so far away
I lie awake half the night
Autumn is coming it seems like it's in sight
Wasn't it like an idiot summer...
