Cdim  G   G/F#   Em7    A7      G6      D      D7M 
It's watermelon weather,   that summer kind of weather  
      G     G/F#   Em7   G/B      A7       
When people get together     and sing 
Em7  A7   D       D7M      D7            D7/9  D9   G        G/F# 
It's the time of year the stars seem to dance with laughter 
         Em       B5+       Em7          Em6     A7 
And the moon's so big and ripe, it can hardly climb 
G/B         A7   Em7 A7 
Bright as a dime 
Cdim G        G/F#  Em7    A7    G6        D       D7M 
 So why don't you meander    to your best girl's veranda 
      G    G/F#  Em7     G/B      A7       
And sorta kinda hand her     the ring 
G/B A7        D          F#m     B7     B7/F# 
For it's the sweetheart kissin' season 
             G6    Cdim  G 
And all the world's in rhyme 
G5  A7    D       B7   E7  Gdim  A7    G6 D 
When it's watermelon, sweet love tell in' time 
 A7                 Em7                A7    Em7    A7 
This is the time to sing this kind of purdy little ditty 
   D                  G                  D 
A-walkin' along an' singin' a song an' clinging to someone purdy 
    Em7               A7 
The type of a tune to go with the moon  
   Em7           Gdim Em7 A 
That's sailin' along a way on high  
Em7  A7   D                    F#m 
After   strollin' a while, for maybe a mile  
  Bm                Bm7/E     E7     B7     
Remember to stop an' pop the question 
Edim     E                    B5+ 
If your timin' is right, your future is bright  
     E                  Bm5-/7 A7 
As bright as a watermelon sky 
     Em7                    A7                
An' then when you found a bench for two  
     Em7               A7 
Fou found your cue to linger  
D                    Em7 
The chance you sought, to show what you bought  
D        Em7       D 
You happily thought to bring her 
G                  G/F# 
To cinch the thing, you give her the ring  
    Em7                G/B      A7 
You purchased from the five an' dime 
Edim     D                  D7        Cdim      G6  Cdim Gdim 
Take her in your arms an' whisper that you are mine all  mine  

 G   Edim  D                 B7 
With that line to sell, I'm here to tell  
      E       Bm5-/7   G/B   A7     D    
That you'll do well in watermelon time 
G/B A7        D          F#m     B7     B7/F# 
For it's the sweetheart kissin' season 
             G6    Cdim  G 
And all the world's in rhyme 
G5  A7    D       B7      E7  Gdim  A7    G6 D 
When it's water - melon, sweet love tellin' time
