8. That summer Intro : D E Verse: A I went to work for her that summer Fism A teenage kid so far from home D She was a lonenly widow woman E Hell bent to make it on her own A We were a thousand miles from nowhere Fism Wheat fields as far as I could see D Both needin' somethin' from each other E A Not knowin' yet what that might be Verse: 'Till she came to me one evening Hot cup of coffee and a smile In a dress that I was certain She hadn't worn in quite a while There was a difference in her laughter There was a softness in her eyes And on the air there was a hunger Even a boy could recognize Chorus: E D She had a need to feel the thunder A To chase the lightnin' from the skies D To watch the storm with all its wonder E Raging in her lover's eyes Fism E She had to ride the heat of passion D A Like a comet burnin' bright D Rushing head long in the wind E Out where only dreams had been A Burnin' both ends of the night Verse: That summer wind was all around me Nothin' between us but the night And when I told her that I'd never She softly whispered that's alright And then I watched her hands of leather Turn to velvet in a touch There's never been another summer When I have ever learned so much Repeat Chorus: Solo: Verse: I often think about that summer The sweat the moonlight and the lace And I have rarely held another When I haven't seen her face And every time I pass a wheat field Watch it dancin' with the wind Although I know it isn't real I just can't help but feel Her hungry arms again Repeat Chorus: Rushing head long in the wind Out where only dreams had been Burnin' both ends of the night |
