A+ Dm6 A7 Dm6 A7 Dm6 A7 Dm6
Summertime, and the livin' is easy;
A7 Gm7 Bb6 Gm7 Bbmaj7 Fdim A E7+9 A Am7
Fish are jumpin', and the cotton is high.
A7-5 Dm6 A7 Dm6 A7 Dm6 A7 Dm6 G7
Yo' daddy's rich and yo' mama's good-lookin',
F Dm G Gm7 Dm Dm+7 Dm6 A7
So hush, little baby, don't you cry.
A+ Dm6 A7 Dm6 A7 Dm6 A7 Dm6 A7
One of these mornin's, you're gonna rise up singin';
Gm7 Bb6 Gm7
You're gonna spread your wings
Bbmaj7 Fdim A E7 A Am7
And take to the sky.
A7-5 Dm6 A7 Dm6 A7 Dm6 A7 Dm6
But 'til that mornin', ain't nothin' can harm you
G7 F Dm G Gm7 Dm
With daddy and mammy stan - din' by.
