"Summer Is The Man"
(Gilbert - Esposito)

Intro: (instrumental over verse 1 chords)

Verse 1:

E B7
The eyes of a man
C#7 B7
That can see what you can
E B7
Are the eyes that can see
E7 A
Far beyond you and me
Am E
So we'll wait and we'll wait
Fmaj7#11 [133200] E
Until we are like he

Refrain 1:

E G#m
He sees the beauty in a flower
D#7 G#m
That you or I'd pass by
A F#m
Tormented is his mind
B C#m/E B7
But we've ignored the cries

Verse 2 [note extra lines]:

What is the world
To a man with no hands?
E B7
And what is the world
C#7 B7
To a man with no ears?
And what is the world
To a man with no tongue?
To a man with all three
But who knows less than he

Refrain 2:

He feels the world going round
Right beneath his feet
Sees the wealth of man
Struggling in his heat

Instrumental (fuzz bass and guitar duet over verse 1 chords)

Refrain 3:

The frost of Autumn kills the flower
Held in his hand
Pity to lose him now
Summer is the man [end cold on B7]
