More songs by Chad And Jeremy


This file is part of a collection that (moreso than the rest of the site) are not meant to be detailed or accurate transcriptions of the original recordings. They're just some simple chord charts that I made for my own use, some of them my own arrangements.

Written by Chad Stuart, Clive Metcalfe, & Keith Noble
Transcribed by T-rev www.t-rev.net
Original in A no capo

A  C#m  D   E              A        C#m  D
Trees------ swayin' in the summer breeze
E                A       C#m   D
Showin' off their silver leaves
   E         A
As we walked by

C#m  D   E           A          C#m  D
Soft---- kisses on a summer's day
E               A       C#m  D
Laughing all our cares away
     E       A   C#m   D    E (/F# /G#)
Just you and I

A  C#m  D   E                A        C#m  D
Sweet------ sleepy warmth of summer nights
E             A         C#m  D
Gazing at the distant lights
       E      A   C   D   A
In the starry sky

 D       %        E        %
    They say that all good things
         A   %      F#m  %
    must end   some day
    D  %      E     %     F#m  %  %  %
    Au---tumn leaves must fall
        A             %        C#Major   %
    But don't you know that it hurts me so
       D       %      C#m  Bm
    To say goodbye to you----
 F#m         %              C#m  %
    Wish you didn't have to go
 F#m    %        C#m  %
    No, no, no, no

             A  C#m  D   E               A      C#m  D
And when the rain------- beats against my windowpane
     E                A       C#m   D
I'll think of summer days again
    E        A   C#m   D    E   F#Major
And dream of you
