intro. I wrote the chords in anyways.)

I vowed this wouldn't be, another lost summer.
D G D G
I've looked around, but I can't see, that old time summer.

It's still hot, but I look at what I've got... and all I feel is number.

Verse 2:
D G D G
I guess it's too late, to plant those seeds, another lost summer.
D G D G
It's not worth it to pull the weeds, are you ready drummer?
D G
They'll just die, like I'm doing inside.
Verse 3:
D G D G
My brother and I were the best of friends, that old time summer.
D G D G
More than just brothers but now I pretend, another lost summer.
D G
Is it a crutch, that I expect so much?
Verse 4:
D G C G
I promised myself I'd be strong this year, oohhhh ooohhh.
D G C G
But here I am again filed with summer tears, oohhhh ooohhh.
D G D G
And the fish ain't biting, and I'm through fighting the same situation, the same frustration,
D G D G
'Cause summer's almost gone, the love I planned to sing about never came along.
D G D G
And I can't figure out where I belong, but every year I sing the same old song,
D G D G
Where's that old time summer? Where's that old time summer?
D G D G
It's another lost summer. Another lost summer.
