G        D
In the trees
    G        D
The autumn breeze
     G        Bm
The winter's cold
     A       F#m     D/F#   G
But summer's soul is underneath
    G       D
The sun is low
    G       D
The heavy sky
   G         Bm        A      F#m     D/F#     G
I sometimes watch it 'till it sinks below the tide

Chorus:
G     D   G D
So I wait
G     Bm A F#m D/F# G
So I wait

The sun is low,
the heavy sky
I sometimes watch it ‘till it sinks below the tide
Life is change,
we move on
And where you go, I hope the summer goes along

Chorus:
G     Bm G D
So I wait
G      Bm A F#m D/F# G
And I wait

And in the trees,
the autumn breeze
The winter’s cold, but summer’s soul is underneath
The sun is low,
the heavy sky
I sometimes watch it
‘till it sinks below the tide

G         D
Life is change
G       D
We move on
     G        Bm    A        F#m    D/F#   G
And where you go I hope the summer goes along

Chorus:
G     Bm  G D
So I wait
G      Bm  A F#m D/F# G
And I wait   yeeeeaaaah

Life is change, we move on
And where you go I hope the summer goes along
