...SUMMER SOFT... by Stevie Wonder -----------------................. *from 'Songs In The Key Of Life' (1976)* *CAPO 4th FRET* (Original Key: F#) Intro: D Verse 1:

^D Summer soft, ^C#7wakes you with a kiss, to star the ^C7morning off. ^B7 In the midst of herself playing ^GSanta Claus, She brings ^Em7gifts...^A7 through her ^Dbreeze.

^D Morning rain, ^C#7gently plays her rhythms on your ^C7window pane. ^B7 Giving you no clue of when she ^Gplans to change, To bring ^Em7rain, ^A7or sun-^Dshine.

Bridge 1:

^D And so you wait to see what she'll ^C#7do; Is it ^C7sun or rain for ^B7you' But it ^Gbreaks your heart in ^Em7two, When ^A7you find ^Dit's ^COc-^Bmto-^A#ber...

Chorus 1:

^D And she's ^Gm7gone, ^C7 And she's ^Gm7gone. ^C7 Summer's ^Dmaj7gone, ^Em7 Taking ^Dwith ^Cher ^Bmsum-^A#mer's ^Em7play..^A.

Verse 2:

^D Winter wind, ^C#7whispers to you that he wants to ^C7be your friend. ^B7 But not waiting for your answer, ^Ghe begins, Forcing ^Em7dangers ^A7way with his ^Dbreeze.

^D Morning snow, ^C#7plans to have a winter ball for ^C7you to throw. ^B7 But just where or when, he never ^Glets you know, If it's ^Em7snow, or ^A7clear days you'll ^Dfind.

Bridge 2:

^D And so you wait to see what she'll ^C#7do; Is it ^C7sun or rain for ^B7you' But it ^Gbreaks your heart in ^Em7two, 'Cos you've been ^Dfooled ^Cby ^BmAp-^A#ril...
