1. The winter doesn’t want you,

         Am              C                                  Em

    it haunts you, summer serenading’s a long way

                      G       Am             C

    from this frozen place, your face.

2. Our teacher, our preacher,

           Am                     C                                        Em

    it’s nature, and like flowers growing in a bomb crater,

               G           Am          C

    from nothing a rose, it grows.

 

                                              Em              - G

    I been thinking ‘bout the West Coast,

                                       Am               - C

    not the one that everyone knows.

                                           Em        - G

    I'm sick of living in the shadows,

                                                            Am

    we’ve one more chance before the light goes,

                       C              Em   - G - Am - C

    before the summer of love.

                       Em    - G - Am - C

3. We’re freezing, we’re leaving,

         Am             C                                       Em

    believing that all we need’s ahead of us somewhere

             G              Am                 C

    in a summer to come, so we run.

                       C              Em   - G - Am - C

    before the summer of love.
