South

D
Faded sky, faded tan, floorboard still full of sand
G                       A
Summer heat's droppin', closin' up shoppin'
D
Lonely boardwalk empty rides, ghosts of lovers wave goodbye
    G                  A                 | D    | D    | G    | A    |
The carnival's cryin', birds all flyin', south



[Verse II]
D
I take a turn on your Mama's street wishin' I could catch a peek
   G                             A
Of you on that front step, like "Boy are you here yet?"
D
But I know the truth in the lonesome sound of the choked leaves when they hit the ground
G                  A                  | D    | D    | G    | A    |
Summertime's dyin', birds all flyin', south



[Chorus]
        G        D        A        D
Well it might be over you might be gone
G         D           A              D
Might not miss me you might've moved on
Continues after the ad
    G            D        A          D
But my love will still be hangin' around
G        A         | D    | D    | G    | A    |
When the birds fly south



[Verse III]
    D
I'm Passin' Burke's and that neon sign I laugh about the punch you threw that night
        G                        A
No you never did like her, but I never thought you'd fight her
          D
And if I close my eyes I can feel your kiss taste the salt drippin' off your lips
         G                               A               | D    | D    | G    | A    |
But I'm brought back down to Earth by a breeze so cold it hurts



[Chorus]
        G        D        A        D
Well it might be over you might be gone
G         D           A              D
Might not miss me you might've moved on
    G            D        A          D
But my love will still be hangin' around
G        A          Bm
When the birds fly south



[Bridge]
       D
When winter sets in
     G                        A
When springtime rolls back to summer again



[Solo]
| D    | D    | G    | A    | x2



[Chorus]
        G        D        A        D
Well it might be over you might be gone
G         D           A              D
Might not miss me you might've moved on
    G            D        A          D
But my love will still be hangin' around
G        A         | D    | D    | G    | A    |
When the birds fly south
