Out Of Summertime Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 It's the CDuquoin, Illinois county fair

 I could still see you standing there F like a dreaCm

Flatbed stage on a little dirt track

She was second row, her hair pulled back

 We were F young and fCree

G [hit 6th string string once then strum down on "Oh" similar for the F

everytime this part happens]

Oh, she could've been mine

 But Fwe ran out of summertiiiiiCime

 Spent a Cfew weeks out on a lake shore beach

 Carved our names high as we could reach F on an old wooden Cpier

We made plans we planned to keep

 300 miles from her to me and her F senior yeCar

GOh, she could've been mine

 But Fwe ran out of summertime

C [half strum half pick to ge a full sound without losing the twangy feel]

And of all the things I let get away

 She's the one that keeps me awake at nFight C

And I've never seen days go by so fast

A little more sand falling through the glass

 She was Fhot as July and sweet as sunCshine

GOh, she could've been mine

 But Fwe ran out of summertiiiiCiime

 If the Cdays had only stayed that long

 And those autumn leaves didn't have to fall F

 Oh, we'd have fell in Clove

'Cause what we felt on that Ferris wheel

 Was just too right and just too real F

 But just not long enCough

GOh, she could've been mine

F [let ring, then build to chorous with single strums]

But we ran out of summertime

 And of Call the things I let get away

 She's the one that keeps me awake at Fnight C

And I've never seen days go by so fast

A little more sand falling through the glass

 She was Fhot as July, sweet as sunCshine

GOh, she could've been mine

 But Fwe ran out of summertiiiCiime

C [very clean picking for this section]

And of all the things I let get away

 She's the one that keeps me awake at Fnight C

And I've never seen days go by so fast

A little more sand falling through the glass

  F sweet as sunCshine

C [back to half and half]

And of all the things I let get away

 She's the one that keeps me awake at Fnight C

And I've never seen days go by so fast

A little more sand falling through the glass

 She was Fhot as July, sweet as sunCshine

GOh, she could've been mine

 But Fwe ran out of summertime
