Fred Eaglesmith - Summerlea

^AmNight time's falling on the Summerlea,and su^Gppers getting cold. Its the^Am second time in as many weeks he^G hasn't shown. He's ^Fprobably chasing some old steer a^Amcross some prairie storm. And w^Ghen she asks him he'll just shrug and say &^Amquot;that's the way things go".

But he o^Amnly gets into town twice a month and he ^Ggets out as fast as he can. He d^Amon't have a phone so she can't call him up and she ^Gnever knows where he is. He ^Fsmells like horses and he chews tobacco and he ^Amcusses and he spits. She^G's been in love a couple of times before, but ^Amnever quite like this.

^AmNext month it'll be those damned old ^GRodeos and fairs. And ^AmHe'll be gone for six weeks straight to G^God only knows where. And he ^Fwon't win any money and ^Amworst than that, he won't care. ^GWhen she asks him, he'll just smile he had a ^Amreal good time out there.

Well he ^Amstops his horse, to get a light and the ^Gwater pores of his hat. Hes been ^Amout in the rain most of the night and o^Gught to be getting back. His been ^Fthinking about the color of her hair and the ^Amtouch of her hand. And the ^Gway she quietly smiles whene^Amver she looks at him.
