Sticky Summer Weather


Am G Am G Am D G Sticky summer weather always pains me - Am D G It's like living beneath a blanket, I can't breathe. C D G The days are like an oven, the nights forever. Am D G Nothing to do, not much else to see.

Then again, I can't stand the thought of winter -
Ain't got a fire, there's nobody to keep me warm.
The night is gray, and my coffee tastes so bitter.
My memories go raging like a storm.

Seems like twenty years ago, it was springtime,
The rain was sweet, the wind was cool and clean.
I had a girl, she was a lady I could talk to,
Now its almost like she'd never been.


A D I've been a long time looking for rainbows, G A D C G Trying to find a way to believe in tomorrow.

There was a time, I think, when I remember dreaming.
There was a reason, I can't find it now.
As I recall, it almost made my life worth living.
It must be hiding like the sun behind the clouds.

I've been a long time looking for rainbows,
Trying to find a way to believe in tomorrow.

Sticky summer weather always pains me.
It's like living beneath a blanket, I can't breathe.
The days are like an oven, the nights forever.
Nothing to do, not much else to see.


A D I'm spending a long time looking for rainbows...

(Words and music by John Denver, 1968)

Notes: The album version from Take Me to Tomorrow is actually in the key of F, but the live versions are all in the key of G.
