Boy, this took me back. One of my favorites by Mr Leitch. Here ya go, Jerry:

Writer in the Sun    (Donovan)


       F                        G
The days of wine and roses

       C       Em       Am    Am/G
Are distant days for me

   F                                    G
I dream of the last and the next affair

            Am       Em    Dm (C) G
And of girls I'll never see


                      C         C/B
CH: And here I sit, the retired

C/Bb          Am
Writer in the sun

C   C/B    C/Bb             F       G
The retired writer in the sun



Tonight I trod in the starlight
I excuse myself with a grin
I ponder the moon in a silver spoon
And the little one alive within    (CH)

The magazine girl poses
On my glossy paper aeroplane
Too many years I've spent in the city
Playing with Mr Loss and Mr Gain    (CH)

I bathe in the sun of the morning
Lemon circles swim in the tea
Fishing for time with a wishing line
And throwing it back in the sea    (CH)


Nice work if you can get it...

Cheers,
Michael
