(Summer!) (Summer!) (This time last summer)

Ab           C#     Ab           C#
It's finally summer so I've been told
Ab          C#      Fm          F# C#
But if it's summer, why am I so cold?
Abm7           C#          F#maj7       Bmaj7
This time last summer baby I would have been so warm
Abm7        C#               Bmaj7   Abm7
For I found summer last year softly, softly
Emaj7                 Ebm7    Ab
I found summer softly in your arms

In this kind of weather the people say
It's a perfect day, why is my sky so gray?
This time last summer baby the sky would have been so blue
For you loved me last summer softly, softly
You loved me and softly I loved you

F#         Ab       C#      Ab            Eb     C#
Now you're gone and I don't care what the people say
           Bb7        Ab
There's no summer out there

The seasons come, the seasons goes
But if it's summer, I will never know
This time last summer, baby, the world would have been so gay
But somehow we let summer softly, sofly
Somehow we let summer slip away
