Summer soft,

Wakes you with a kiss,

To start the morning off.

In the midst of herself,

Playing Santa Claus,

She brings gifts...

Through her breeze.

Morning rain,
C#7
Gently plays her rhythmns,
C7
On your window pane.
B7
Giving you no clue,
G
Of when she plans to change,
Em7 A7 D
To bring rain, or sun-shine.
Bridge 1:
D
And so you wait,
C#7
To see what she'll do;

Is it sun or rain for you?

But it breaks your heart in two,

When you find it's Oc-to-ber...

And she's gone,

And she's gone.

Taking with her sum-mer's play...
Verse 2:
D
Winter wind,
C#7
Whispers to you that he,
C7
Wants to be your friend.
B7
But not waiting for your answer,
G
He begins,
Em7 A7 D
Forcing dangers way with his breeze.
D
Morning snow,
C#7
Plans to have a winter ball,
C7
For you to throw.
B7
But just where or when,
G
He never lets you know,
Em7
If it's snow,
A7 D
Or clear days you'll find.
Bridge 2:
D
And so you wait,
C#7
To see what she'll do;
C7 B7
Is it sun or rain for you?

But it breaks your heart in two,

'Cos you've been fooled by Ap-ril...
