[Intro 1]
[G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D]
[G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
Get up, [C]get
out of [G]bed.
I just want to sleep instead.
The [C]fire is burning out[G].
You took a different [C]route?[G]
Bit by [C]the rattlesnake.[G]
No [D]swimming [G]at the lake, no, no.
One last [C]Friday night,
[G]gon[D]na do wha[G]tever I feel like.

[Verse 2]
[G]The summer's starting [C]to drift [G]away
but you don't want [D]to let [G]go.
Now you're watching the [C]rainfall [G]by yourself
from your [D]bedroom win[G]dow.
And I'll be checking [C]the mailbox [G]for the
postcards [D]you said you'd [G]send,
telling [C]me [G]that [C]you might stop [G]by in the winter [C]for

[Interlude 1]
the weekend.
[G][D][G][C][G][D][G][C][G][D]
[G]

[Verse 3]
Rope hanging [C]from the tree,
[G]cov[D]ered in dir[G]t and lea[D]ves.[G]
The thunder [C]rolls [G]away.
Wait, [D]turn [G]around and met, oh yeah.
Buried treasure that [C]hasn't been [G]found,
pack [D]of wolves [G]howling in the background.
[D]She[G] was wearing yellow[C]
and [G]maroon stripes,
messing with [D]the flashlight,
sneaking out at [G]midnight.

[Verse 4]
The summer's starting to [C]drift [G]away
but you don't want [D]to let [G]go.
Now you're watching the [C]rainfall [G]by yourself
from your [D]bedroom win[G]dow.
And I'll [D]be checking [C]the mailbox [G]for the
postcards [D]you said you'd [G]send,
telling me that [C]you might stop [G]by
in the winter for [D]the weekend.

[Verse 5]
I was [G]reaching for the last branch [C]looking [G]at the end,
lighting fire[D]works and [G]watch them go [D]bang.
[G]Running through the back door
[C]covered in grass stain[G]s,
it's just [D]a sum[G]mer thing.
I was reaching for the last branch
[C]looking at [G]the end,
lighting fire[D]works and
[G]watch them go [D]bang.
Came [G]running through the back
door [C]covered in grass stain[G]s,
it's just [D]a summer thing.

[Verse 6]
[G]It's just [Ab]a su[Eb]m mer thi[Ab]ng.[Eb]
[Ab]It's just a su[Eb]mmer thing[Ab].[Eb]
[Ab]It's just a summer thing[Eb].
[Ab]It's just a su[Eb]mmer thing
[Ab](got me going [Eb]crazy).
