Yellow Days Chords & Lyrics - Gordon Downie

[INTRO]
[Bb] [Dm] [Gm]

[VERSE]
Summer [Bb]on, bring [Dm]on the buzzing [Gm]past
Summer [Bb]on, bring [Dm]on august [Gm]trash
The sweat of Johnny [Bb]Cash
The hot-knife to the [Dm]hash
The girls in the [Gm]grass
Summer, bring it [Bb]on, [Dm]oh, at [Gm]last

[PRE-CHORUS]
[Gm]Days that glow and ignite
And explode into [Cm]nights

Nights that scream for morphine
And swim into the [Gm]days [Gbaug] [Bb/F]
Em7-5
Days of whisky and cake
Nights of make-be[Eb]lieve
Days you don't be[Bb]lieve
Nights of faith in f[Cm]lames
And not cons[Eb]umed by flam[Bb]es

[CHORUS]
Ah still, summer's always go[Cm]ing
Turning everything Canada-[Bb]grey
And I will miss all the not-know[Cm]ing
Of those summer [Bb]days
But I swear I will take morphine and [Cm]swim
If you take one more look at [Eb]him

[VERSE]
Ah, those yellow [Bb]days
Bring [Dm]on the liquid [Gm]smoke
Summer [Bb]on, night's a [Dm]blindfold
Stay [Gm]close, then this bird has [Bb]flown
The bullet hits the [Dm]bone
And it's all filmed on a[Gm] phone
Summer's getting [Bb]on, [Dm]oh, stay [Gm]close

[PRE-CHORUS]
[Gm]Days glowing, igniting
Exploding into [Cm]nights

Nights, "I'm cold", I'm here
"Hold me closer to the [Gm]day"[Gbaug]
[Bb/F] [Em7]-5
Days it's in your blood
Nights you never [Eb]dreamed
(It's supposed to be a [Bb]dream)
Nights lost in the [Cm]flood
And not lost [Eb]in the flood

[CHORUS]
[Bb]Ah still, summer's always go[Cm]ing
Turning everything Canada-[Bb]grey
And I will miss all the not-know[Cm]ing
Of all those summer [Bb]days
But I swear I will also take morphine and [Cm]swim
If you take one more look at [Eb]him

[CODA]
Ah, those yellow [Bb]day[Dm]s [Gm]
Ah, those yellow [Bb]day[Dm]s [Gm]
Ah, those yellow [Bb]day[Dm]s [Gm]
Ah, those yellow [Bb]day[Dm]s [Gm]
