CAPO: 2 



Intro: D  Am  Em  G  D 

                        Am 
From the ship, we could see it in the distance 
       Em 
As the fog was finally lifting 
       G                           D 
We had come to the shores of Summerday 
                   Am                                   Em   F 
Gently landing, we jumped out on the sand and found our way 


                            C                 G                     F 
Where the dirt was soft and black, we started digging a garden and 
                             C             G                      Bb 
Soon we found the woods that we'd call The Forest of Arden for to Play 
                      Eb 
When we came to Summerday 
       Bb              Eb 
On the shores of Summerday 
        Bb            D 
We will live in Summerday 


       Am 
And we climbed a stony mountain 
        Em 
We were boisterous then quiet 
      G                                 D 
As we thought about what instruments to make 
                   Am                                Em       F 
Soon we started to build the uilleann pipes and fine guitars 


                        C           G                         F 
Then we scouted out the hollows for solitude and silence and  
                             C            G  
We found the places we could meet, by the blue and glassy river 
                                     Bb 
Under stars where the paper lanterns sway 
                        Eb 
In the streets of Summerday 
          Bb                  Eb 
Trust the night and trust the day 
        Bb            D 
Sun and moon of Summerday 


INTERLUDE: Am  Em  G  D 


                       Am 
We are pilgrims in the land between religions 
       Em 
We are following our children 
       G                                D 
And we paint in different colours every day 
                         Am                                   Em     F 
And if we're true to our hearts they will grow up and want to stay 


                         C       G                        F 
We will work beside them as they build modest houses and 
                 C             G            
On a misty April morning we'll rest the shovels on the fence 
                            Eb      
And die and become a summer day 
        Bb              Eb 
Oh, the fields of Summerday 
        Bb               Eb 
And the flowers of Summerday 
          Bb            D     Eb 
They will live in Summerday 


       Bb              Eb 
To the shores of Summerday 
      Bb            Eb 
So we sail to Summerday 
        Bb            D     Eb 
We will live in Summerday
