A          E             G A
Took a sad song of one sweet evening  
    E          G      D       A
I smiled and quickly turned away.  
         A     E       G   A
It's not easy singing sad songs  
      E        G       D             A
but still the easiest way I have to say.  
             G             D  A
So when you look into the sun  
              G                D    A
and see the things we haven't done --  
           G              D
oh was it better then to run  
          C                A
than to spend the summer crying.  
     C             G       A
Now summer cannot come anyway.  
     
        A          E         G A              E      G          D            A
I had waited for time to change her.      The only change that came was over me.  
        A     E         G A                E              G    D       A
She pretended not to want love --         I hope she was only fooling me.  
             G             D  A                        G           D    A
So when you look into the sun             look for the pleasures nearly won.  
           G              D                          C                A
Or was it better then to run              than to spend the summer singing.  
     C             G             A
And summer could have come in a day.       
   
   
        A          E         G A              E          G      D       A
So if you hear my sad song singing        remember who and what you nearly had.  
        A          E         G A              E             G      D       A
It's not easy singing sad songs      when you can sing the song to make me glad.  
             G             D  A                         G             D  A
So when you look into the sun            and see the words you could have sung:  
           G              D                      C            A
It's not too late, only begun,          we can still make summer.  
     C             G       A
Yes, summer always comes anyway.  
   
   
             G             D  A                         G             D     A
So when you look into the sun             and see the words you could have sung:  
           G              D               C              A
It's not too late, only begun.            Look into the sun.
