[VERSE]
We've [G]suffered e[C]nough, at the [G]hands of the [D]Wintersmith
[G]All had our [D]fill of the [G]frost on the [D]ground
Let's [G]drink, to the [C]health of the [G]fair Summer [D]Lady
And [G]wish her the [C]best, as she [D]draws the sun [G]down

[VERSE]
Go [G]back to your [C]mountains, you [Em]cold-hearted [D]lover
Your [G]magic is [C]broken, your [Em]mischief is [D]done
The [G]time is at [C]hand, for the [Em]fair Summer [D]Lady
To [G]take up her [C]place, and to [D]draw down the [G]sun

[CHORUS]
Let the [C]sea[D]sons [Em]turn
Let the [C]rivers [D]start a-[Em]flowing
Let the [C]hot [D]sun [Bm]burn
And [C]melt our [D]frozen [G]hearts [C] [G]

[VERSE]
Too [G]long, have we [C]lived in the [G]clutches of [D]Winter
Too [G]long, have we [D]lived in the [G]grip of the [D]cold
One [G]wave of her [C]hand, and the [G]fair Summer [D]Lady
Will [G]turn the white [C]fields, into [D]yellow and [G]gold

[VERSE]
To [G]breeze through the [C]corn, on the [Em]first day in [D]Springtime
To [G]lie under [C]skies of mag[Em]nificent [D]blue
Just [G]look in the [C]eyes of the [Em]fair Summer [D]Lady
She'll [G]harvest our [C]dreams and she'll [D]make them come [G]true

[CHORUS]
Let the [C]sea[D]sons [Em]turn
Let the [C]rivers [D]start a-[Em]flowing
Let the [C]hot [D]sun [Bm]burn
And [C]melt our [D]frozen [G]hearts
Let the [C]warm [D]winds [Em]blow
Send the [C]North Wind [D]on his [Em]journey
Sweep a[C]way [D]the [Bm]snow
The [C]Summer [D]Lady's [G]here

[BRIDGE]
She'll [A]smile on the hillside
She'll [C]dance on the lake
She'll [D/A]shimmer with brightness
When [C]she is awake
She can [A]turn the sun blood-red
In a [C]hot burning sky
But when [D/A]Summer is over
The [C]Lady must [Am]die.[F] ...[Dm] ... [Bb]

[VERSE]
So [G]drink, to the [C]health of the [G]fair Summer [D]Lady
[G]Bathe in her [D]glory and [G]be of good [D]cheer
As [G]sure, as the [C]Summer is [G]followed by [D]Winter
We'll [G]call on the [C]Lady of [D]Summer each [G]year

[CHORUS]
Let the [C]sea[D]sons [Em]turn
Let the [C]rivers [D]start a-[Em]flowing

Send the [C]North Wind [D]on his [Em]journey
Sweep a[C]way [D]the [Bm]snow
