Lyrics/Song Structure:
======================
---> Play Riff 1
---> Play Riff 2 over:
I thought about my scene today
And I've finally got the words to say
The truth is cutting like a knife
Gonna use it to cut away my strife
The grass is green
And the sky is blue
My head is clear
And my thoughts are true, yeah ...
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Calling out young and old
We've got a thing that can't be sold, yeah
The time that takes to rise above
In the summer of love
---> Play Riff 2 over:
It's the summer, it's the summer
It's the summer of love, I say
It's the summer, it's the summer
It's the summer of love, I say
It's the summer, it's the summer
It's the summer of love, I say
It's the summer, it's the summer
It's the summer of love, I say
---> Play Riff 2 (8x) over Solo
---> Play Riff 2 over:
I wake up each day to the sun
And it's hard to choose what to do for fun
A blissful world surrounds me
And my brothers and sisters love is always free
Oh, don't you know that I've
Waited my whole life ... just to show
What's inside ... and let my love flow, yeah ...
---> Play Riff 1 over:
Calling out young and old
We've got a thing that can't be sold, yeah
The time that takes to rise above
In the summer of love
---> Play Riff 2 over:
It's the summer, it's the summer
It's the summer of love, I say
It's the summer, it's the summer
It's the summer of love, I say
It's the summer, it's the summer
It's the summer of love, I say
It's the summer, it's the summer
It's the summer of love, I say
---> Play Riff 3 (22x) over:
The colors blend as the prism divides
If you get the chance (join the prison inside???)
The colors blend as the prism divides
If you get the chance (join the prison inside???)
We can't say we get any sun
We can't seem to get any sun
This is the summer of unity, oh oh
A rickety dance, to give me a chance, to take off my pants and play
I take up the time to make up a rhyme and give you the sign to say
Happy and tasteful ... crystal and sight
... race and get down, right?
The colors blend as the prism divides
If you get the chance (join the prison inside???)
The colors blend as the prism divides
If you get the chance (join the prison inside???)
Oh I say by the power vested in me
---> Play Riff 4 over:
(It is the) Summer of love
---> Play Riff 2 over:
It's the summer, it's the summer
It's the summer of love, I say
It's the summer, it's the summer
It's the summer of love, I say
Yeah, I said it's the summer of love
My head is clear
And my thoughts are true
---> End with a D (x577xx)
