WRITTEN BY:Robin Wilson


C (w/Fig. 1)
(w/Riff A)
G             C
I walked home to the sun
F               G
I couldn't ride another one
G               C               F      G
I thought a lot along the lines
G                    C
And I've been fooled about all night
F           G 
Wiped clean always by midnight
G                 C            F       G
Wasn't it like an idiot summer
G                 C            F       G
Wasn't it like an idiot summer
W/Riff A. (slightly different)
C
G                 C
Three, four peaks all I could see
F                     G
In the morning it's a hundred and ten degrees
G              C              F        G            
But I like the goddamn heat
G           C
I lie awake half the night
F                   G
Autumn is coming it seems like it's in sight
G                   C           F      G
All the autumn that you can see
G                   C           F      G
All the autumn that you can see
C (w/Fig. 1)                 G     C G  C G  C G
It's growing darker like the trees
C                           G
But if all the trees should fall
                                    C G  C G  C G
All the bugs would crawl in my sleep
C (w/Fig. 1)
(And then we're out of work)

SOLO:
G - C - F - G
G - C - F - G
G - C - F - G
G - C - F - G

It's growing darker like the trees
But if all the trees should fall
All the bugs would crawl in my sleep
There's no telling I was so confused
I try but I can't help you choose
Tucson is so far away
I lie awake half the night
Autumn is coming it seems like it's in sight
Wasn't it like an idiot summer...
