Karen Elson - Cruel Summer

      ( G D G )

G                         D
It's been a cruel summer
                             G
The sun has been hit by the storms
                             D
My darling was bewitched by another
                                 G
Her black magic tricks stole his heart

C                         G
I saw her screaming as she twirled her hair
                           D
So long and black like the storms
         G                              C
She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning
   G         D             G
I muttered a lonesome goodbye

It's been a cruel summer
                                   G
The kind that makes grown men turn pale
                             D
My darling was bewitched by another
                              G
I could not compete with black head

   C                       G
I saw her standing as she twirled her hair
                        D
So long and black like the storms
 G                                   C
She caught my darling's eye and as quickly as the lightning
    G        D          G
I muttered a lonesome goodbye
