Em7
 
F
Everything is freedom
Am
'Til the seasons change
G
And the trees start dying
G                  Am         F
And the sunlight leaves your face
F
Hear the crack of lightning
Am
Where your heart will break
G
Into new beginnings 

beginning to erase
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

      F                  
But something 'bout May 
                       C
makes it all feel better, baby
  E7              
Summerland holds what 
            Am
I want right now
           G    F         
It's like the hoodie you find and 
                 C
you wear forever, baby
   E7                  
Whatever ain't golden now will 
Am
only come back around
 
 
[Chorus]

F
When summer comes, 

I'ma cut my hair
C
Take a long drive 

heading anywhere
      G
Be dancing all night 

with all my friends
                           Am   G
Sittin' on the shores of Summerland, oh
F
When summer comes, 

I'ma cut my hair
C
Take a long drive 

heading anywhere
     G
Be dancing all night 

with all my friends
                 
Sittin' on the

shores of Summerland
 
 
[Verse 2]

                   F
Now the year is aging
Am
And the shadows grow
G
And the color's fading
G               Am
And the people start to slow
F
Like a crowded station
Am
Where the air is cold
G
All the strangers waiting
G                 
On the train that 
                  Am
could bring them home
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

      F     
But something 'bout May makes it 
              C
all feel better, baby
  E7      
Summerland holds what 
            Am
I want right now
           G    F    
It's like the hoodie you find and

you wear forever, baby

Whatever ain't golden now will 
Am
only come back around
