It was the summer of my discontent
C G F
It was the ball of a lifetime
C G F
It was the winter of my [penny ?] absence
C G F
Waiting on the springtime
C G F C
Well, there was dark sackcloth and ashes
G F
For a couple-a years
C G F
I took my licks and my hundred lashes
C G F
I cried a bundle of tears
CHORUS:
G A
Well, that distant shore's forever out of reach
Dm F
Before you know it, you're washed up on the beach
C G F
And yet, you're welcome back
C G F
It was a pretty dark day
C G F
And now the sun is shining, welcome back
C G F
I'll just zoom on my way
C G F
Well, I was bent, but I was not broken
C G F
I was sinking, but I could not drown
C G F
I was reeling, but I was still hoping
C G F
I could be lost and found
C G F
Well, I was temporarily disconnected
C G F
In my state of disrepair
C G F
Disoriented and dejected
C G F
I had to climb out of there
CHORUS:
G A
Well, that distant shore's forever out of reach
Dm F
Before you know it, you're washed up on the beach
C G F
And then, you're welcome back
C G F
It was a pretty dark day
C G F
And now the sun is shining, welcome back
C G F
I'll just zoom on my way
