G      D  G               D G
Summer evening, a maiden fair
    C9      G/B          D    G
Was walking forth in the open air.
G           D G          D G
She met her lover on the way,
    C9        G/B     D      G
She called on out for him to stay.

         G                      D       G
She said love not constant will quickly go.
                D        G
Cold as winter, white as snow.
                 D       G
Summer treasure, hand to hold,
                      D       G
Love be constant in a band of gold.

    G       D     G             D  G
The wind is fresh`ning upon her eyes,
C9       G/B        D          G
Down the years that stretch so wide.
       D  G         D G
Angels sing so far away,
    C9      G/B     D      G
And as his promises gently fade

         G                      D       G
She said love not constant will quickly go.
                D        G
Cold as winter, white as snow.
                 D       G
Summer treasure, hand to hold,
                      D       G
Love be constant in a band of gold.
