that summer – garth brooks – standard tuning
intro
C F G F Em Dm
C
i went to work for her that summer
Am
a teenage kid so far from home
F
she was a lonely widow woman
G
hell bent to make it on her own
C
we were a thousands miles from nowhere
Am
wheat fields as far as i could see
F D G
both needing something from eachother
C
not knowing yet what that might be
C
till she came to me one evening
Am
hot cup of coffee and a smile
F
in a dress that i was certain
G
she hadn’t worn in quite a while
C
there was a difference in her laughter
Am
there was a softness in her eyes
F G
and on the air there was a hunger
C
even a boy could recognize
G F
she had a need to feel the thunder
C
to chase the lightning from the sky
F
to watch the storm and all it’s wonders
G
raging in her lovers eyes
Am G F
she had to ride the heat of passion
C
like a comet burning bright
F
rushing headlong in the wind
G
out where only dreams have been
C
burning both ends of the night
C
that summer wind was all around me
Am
nothing between us but the night
F
and when i told her that i’d never
G
she softly whispered that’s alright
C
and then i watched her hands of leather
Am
turn to velvet in a touch
F G
there’s never been another summer
C
when i have ever learned so much
G F
we had a need to feel the thunder
C
to chase the lightning from the sky
F
to watch the storm and all it’s wonders
G
raging in eachothers eyes
Am G F
we had to ride the heat of passion
C
like a comet burning bright
F
rushing headlong in the wind
G
out where only dreams have been
C
burning both ends of the night
C C C
C
i often think about that summer
Am
the sweat the moonlight and the lace
F
and i have rarely held another
G
when i haven’t seen her face
C
and everytime i pass a wheat field
Am
and watch it dancing in the wind
F G
although i know it isn’t real , i just can’t help but feel
C
her hungry arms again
G F
she had a need to feel the thunder . . .
F
rushing headlong in the wind

out where only dreams have been
