Summertime Dream
Gordon Lightfoot
From The Album - Summertime Dream
Capo 2nd Fret

[Intro]   (C)

(C) Where the road runs down by the (G) butternut grove
To (C) old Bill Skinner's (F) stream
(C) Do tell at the (F) noonday bell
It's (G) time for a summertime (C) dream
In a lunch pail town in a (G) one horse way
You can (C) live like a king and (F) queen
Let's (C) steal away in the (F) noonday sun
It's (G) time for a summertime (C) dream
(Am) Birds in all creation will be (C) twittering in the trees
And (Am) down below's a pond I know
You can (C) swim in it if you (Gsus4) please (G)

And if you come 'round when the mill shuts down
You can see what chivalry means
Let's steal away in the noonday sun
It's time for a summertime dream

On a trip on down to wonderland, in love among the flowers
Where time gets lost with no straw boss, tallying up the hours

Where the road runs down by the butternut grove
To old Bill Skinner's stream
Do tell at the noonday bell
It's time for a summertime dream

Birds in all creation will be twittering in the trees
And down below's a pond I know, you can swim in it if you please

And if you come 'round when the mill shuts down
You can see what chivalry means
Let's steal away in the noonday sun
It's time for a summertime dream
