Ice Cream Summer

F#

[Chorus]
E                 A              
Rosalita, now our summer's gone 
          F#
and you've left me all alone...
           E                   
You know I never expected, no I 
 A
never suspected that
  F#m                              E
You came to me to steal my love away

[Verse 1]
E                                 
You said I've always been a 
B E
dreamer
                 B             E
'Cos dreaming is all I've ever done
              B           A       
Just like our summer - I thought 
               B
it would last forever
            A                      
But as the autumn came, you had 
    B
gone away
        A                       
All the promises you broke meant 
 B
more to me than gold
E           G#m          C#     
Now I'm all alone in the 
       B
heartbreak zone
A                                 
And the winter will be cold 
   B
without you

[Chorus]

Rosalita, now our summer's gone

and you've left me all alone...
           E

  F#m                              E
You came to me to steal my love away

[Verse 2]
E                        B E
You said I was a born loser
E              B             E
'Cos losing is all I've ever done
                 B      A         
Like when I lost you, it proved 
                  Bm   B
that all you said was true
        A                      
And now without you I feel like 
          B
being used
        A                       
All the promises you broke meant 
  B
more to me than gold
E               G#m       
And now I'm all alone in the 
    C#           B
heartbreak zone
A                           C#   
And the winter will be cold 
        E           E
without you, my Rosalita

[Verse 3]
G#           B    A             E
All there is left is a photograph
A                 B    G# 
You smile and the ice cream's 
    E
meltin' down your pants
B                            A   
And I keep living on, you're in 
          B
the past, it's been so long -
A                              
Since the Ice Cream Summer, it's 
                      B
forgotten now it's gone

[Chorus]
E                 A              
Rosalita, now our summer's gone 
          F#
and you've left me all alone...
           E                   
You know I never expected, no I 
 A
never suspected that
  F#m                              B
You came to me to steal my love away

[Verse 4]
           A                    B
Now you're just a memory, don't mean
 nothing more to me
E                     C#    
A photo among others of my old 
                  B
friends and my lovers
A
And the winter is gone, a new 
summer's coming on
A new summer's coming on for you as
C#                     E
 well somewhere, Rosalita
