  6    -6  7 -7    6    -6   7   -7   8  -7  -6
There's a summer place where it may rain or storm,

-7  -8   8   -7   -6    -6  -7 6    -6   7 -7   6
Yet I'm safe and warm.  For within that summer place

-6    7     -7   8 -7  -6  
Your arms reach out to me 

 -7 -8   8  -7  -6   -7   -8   7
and my heart is free from all care.

-7  -8  7     -7   -8   7   5 5  -7 -6
For it knows there are no gloomy skies

  6    6     -6     7   6  
When seen through the eyes 

-5    5   -5   6   -6      8    -8
of those who are blessed with love.

 6  -6   -7    7 -8  6 -6  7 -7   6
And the sweet secret of a summer place.

-6 -7   -8   8 -7 -6   -7  -8   8 -7   -6
Is that it's anywhere when two people share

-7  -8     7     -7   -8     7     -7   -8   7
All their hopes, all their dreams, all their love.

  6    -6  7 -7    6    -6    7 -7   8  -7   -6
There's a summer place where it may rain or storm

-7  -8   -8  -7  -6   -7  -8    7    
Yet I'm safe and warm in your arms.  

-7  -8   7    -7  -8     7
In your arms.  In your arms.
