Verse 1
C#
I see the summer in a
little green leaf now
One million trees now their
swords unsheathed now
Little children been inside
for weeks now
Running out water fighting in the streets now
I always lived for that summertime day
How to be sure good weather
coming your way
How to be sure you leave
behind clouds of grey
We head east, up to Byron Bay
