03 Sep 98 - 05:01 AM (#36886) Subject: Lyr Add: SUMMER OF MY DREAMS (David Mallett)^^ From: Joe Offer I suppose this isn't the song you were thinking of (in this thread), but it made me think of Dave Mallett's "Summer of My Dreams." Kathy Mattea had a bit of a hit with it, and I heard Jean Redpath do a wonderful performance of the song on Prairie Home Companion. SUMMER OF MY DREAMS (David Mallett) In the shade of this old tree In the summer of my dreams By the tall grass, by the wild rose Where the trees dance as the wind blows As the days go, oh, so slowly As the sun shines, oh, so holy On the good and gracious green In the summer of my dreams By the banks of this old stream In the summer of my dreams By the deep pool where the fish wait For the old fool with the wrong bait There's a field of purple clover There's a small cloud passing over And then the rain comes washing clean On the summer of my dreams See the raindrops on the grass now Just like diamonds lying there By the old road where I pass now There's a twilight in the air And as the sun sets down before me I see my true love waiting for me Standing by the back porch screen In the summer of my dreams In the shade of this old tree In the summer of my dreams By the tall grass, by the wild rose Where the trees dance as the beans grow As the days go, oh, so slowly As the sun shines, oh, so holy On the good and gracious green On the summer of my dreams ^^ |

29 Mar 10 - 03:10 AM (#2874429) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Summer of My Dreams (David Mallett) From: GUEST,Tunesmith Do you understand the chord number system given above? For example XOO232 = don't play 6th string ( X indicates this), play 5th and 4th strings open (0 represent an open string), hold 3rd string down at second fret, hold second string down at third fret, and, finally, hold first string down at second fret. And, of course, this is a D major chord. The song contain mainly D,G and A chords, and there variants, plus a Bmin chord where the lyrics " where the tall grass" appears |
