But here's how I did it, and I know it looks confusing but every part of the song is here, I promise! It's just remembering where to play what that's hard... Let me know if it's too confusing, I'll figure something out. Here's the basic idea for riffs during the verses: 0h2 3 2 0 3 2h3 2h3 (G) It's the time of year with things growing wild 0h2 3 2 0 3 0h2 (D) Love's found underneath the stars Em7 D/F# G Cadd9 D e|-3---3---3-------3---3---3---3---3---2---2-| Riff 3 B|-3---3---3-------3---3---3---3---3---3---3-| G|-0---0---0-------0---0---0---0---0-0h2-0h2-| D|-2---0---0-------2-------------------------| A|-2---0---2-0h2-2h3-3---2---0---------------| E|-0-0h2---3-------x-------------3-----------| And here's how riff 3 should be: Em7 D/F# Does it break your heart G 0h2 Cadd9 When you think about me 3 2 0 3 D Do you remember to forget e|---3---3---3-| Riff 4 B|---3---3---3-| G|---0---0---0-| D|-0h2---0---0-| A|---3---3---2-| E|---x---x---3-| Now, when I say Chords, play these: D Em7 Cadd G D IE: The chorus is a combination of "Chords" and Riff 3 D Em7 I go back there in my mind Cadd9 G D Kissing underneath the moonlight Em7 D/F# G 0h2 Cadd9 Discovering things we thought we'd never find 3 2 0 3 D When I was yours and baby you were mine Now to sum it all up: Intro: Riff 1 Riff 2 Verse 1: Riff 1 Riff 2 x4 Riff 3 Riff 4 Chorus: Chords Riff 3 Riff 1 Riff 2 Verse 2: Riff 1 Riff 2 Riff 3 Riff 1 Riff 2 x2 Riff 3 Riff 4 Chorus: Chords Riff 3 Riff 3 x2 Riff 4 Bridge: Chords Riff 4 Chorus 2: Chords Riff 3 Riff 1 Riff 2 Outro: Riff 1 Riff 2 Lyrics: Verse 1: It's the time of year with things growing wild Love's found underneath the stars Kids are playing in the backyard now Catching fireflies in a jar I am sitting on my back porch And I'm wondering where you are And if you look at the moon like I do Does it break your heart Does it break your heart When you think about me Do you remember to forget Summertime Chorus: I go back there in my mind Kissing underneath the moonlight Discovering things we thought we'd never find When I was yours and baby you were mine Summertime Verse 2: I thought I saw you a couple months ago At the airport boarding a plane I couldn't move I didn't know what to do And you took my breath away I heard she's wearing a shiny diamond ring I guess you're finally moving on I hope you're happy when she's looking up at you And I know it might be wrong Yeah it might be wrong When I think about you I just can't forget Summertime Chorus: I go back there in my mind Kissing underneath the moonlight Discovering things we thought we'd never find When I was yours and baby you were mine Oh summertime Bridge: Summertime I go back there in my mind And oh how it gets me everytime Chorus 2: All the flowers growing wild Kissing underneath the moonlight Discovering things we thought we'd never find When I was yours and baby you were mine Summertime Outro: I am sitting on my backporch And I'm wondering where you are
