Summerday

INTRO: D  Am  Em  G  D

                        Am
From the ship, we could see it in 
the distance
       Em
As the fog was finally lifting
       G                    
We had come to the shores of 
       D
Summerday
                   Am              
Gently landing, we jumped out on 
                     Em   F
the sand and found our way


                            C      
Where the dirt was soft and black, 
           G                     F
we started digging a garden and
                             C   
Soon we found the woods that we'd 
          G                      Bb
call The Forest of Arden for to Play
                      Eb
When we came to Summerday
       Bb              Eb
On the shores of Summerday
        Bb            D
We will live in Summerday


       Am
And we climbed a stony mountain
        Em
We were boisterous then quiet
      G                            
As we thought about what 
     D
instruments to make

                   Am       
Soon we started to build the 
                         Em       F
uilleann pipes and fine guitars


                        C          
Then we scouted out the hollows for
 G                         F
 solitude and silence and
                             C     
We found the places we could meet, 
       G
by the blue and glassy river
Under stars where the paper lanterns
 Bb
 sway
                        Eb
In the streets of Summerday
          Bb                  Eb
Trust the night and trust the day
        Bb            D
Sun and moon of Summerday


INTERLUDE: Am  Em  G  D


                       Am
We are pilgrims in the land between 
religions
       Em
We are following our children
       G                         
And we paint in different colours 
       D
every day
                         Am        
And if we're true to our hearts 
                           Em     F
they will grow up and want to stay


                         C      
We will work beside them as they 
 G                        F
build modest houses and
                 C             G
On a misty April morning we'll rest 
the shovels on the fence
                            Eb
And die and become a summer day
        Bb              Eb
Oh, the fields of Summerday
        Bb               Eb
And the flowers of Summerday
          Bb            D     Eb
They will live in Summerday


       Bb              Eb
To the shores of Summerday
      Bb            Eb
So we sail to Summerday
        Bb            D     Eb
We will live in Summerday
