G             D       Bm    Em      C                   Bm

every evening sky an invitation  to trace the patterned stars

    G           D     Bm      Em       C               Bm

and early in july, a celebration  for freedom that is ours

             Em    Am          Dm

And I notice you. In children's games

              Em     Am      Bm

And those who watch from the shade

G              D      Bm     Em       Bm      G       Bm

Every drop of sun is full of fun and wonder- you are summer


VERSE 2:

    G             D          Bm        Em        C           Bm   

And even when the trees have just surrendered to the harvest time

    G             D          Bm         Em       C           Bm

Forfeiting there leaves in late September and sending us inside

               Em        Am    Bm

Still I notice you when change begins

          Em       Am     Bm 

And I embrace for colder winds

  G          D             Bm       Em        Bm           G        Bm

I will offer thanks for what has been and what's to come - you are autumn


VERSE 3:

  G               D       Bm            C             Bm

And everything in time and under heaven finally falls asleep 

G                   D           Bm      C       Bm

Wrapped in blankets white all creation shivers underneath

                   Em       Am       Dm 

And still I notice you when branches crack

          Em        Am      Bm

and in my breath on frosted glass

G          D          Bm         Em      Bm        G       Bm 

Even now in death you open doors for life to enter you are winter


VERSE 4:

    G                D         Bm               C             Bm

And everything that's new has bravely surfaced teaching us to breathe

  G              D           Bm             C                Bm

What was frozen through is newly purposed turning all things green 

              Em             Am       Dm 

So it is with you and how you make me new

     Em     Am     Bm 
With every seasons change

    G          D  Bm         Em         Bm

And so it will be as you are recreating me

G      D       C       Bm
