THEN REPEAT TURNAROUND THEN INTRO PATTERN LEADING INTO :
[VERSE 2] ( SIMPLY REPEAT CHORD PATTERN )
It is the summer of my smiles , free from me keepers of the gloom,
speak to me only with your eyes , it is to you I give this tune ,
it isnt hard to recognise , these things are clear to all from time to time
REPEAT as per FIRST TIME ROUND INC THE TRICKY BIT AND TURNAROUND THEN :
[MIDDLE 8] ( STRUMMED CHORDS ) G / / F / / C / G
G F C
I felt the coldness of my winter , I never thought ,
G
you would ever go ,
F C
I cursed the gloom that set upon us but I know ,
G F C
that I love you so, but I know ,
G
that I love you so , THEN REPEAT VERSE TAB :
[VERSE 3]
These are the seasons of emotion , and like the wind they rise and fall ,
this is the wonder of devotion , I see the torch we all must hold ,
this is the mystery of the quotient , upon us all a little rain must fall .
