Elton John/Bernie Taupin
recorded by Nite People for their "P.M." album (1970)

C - D7 - F - G

C                  D7
Ice thaws the sun when autumn comes
      F                              C/E    G/D
And Bristol trips and bugy rides are over
         C                  D7
And the nucleus of everyone has disappeared
   F                 C/E       G/D
As winter holds my shoulder

   C
So put on your make-up
F
Make up to me now
C
Kick off your sand-shoes
		      D7
Throw them in the sea now
                        G
It's the season of the rain
C
You wear your big hat
F
I'll wear my check cap
C
Throw up your string bags
              D7
Into the old trap
                         G
It's the season of the rain
                 C
And I gotta get home
   F/C           C
I wanna go home again

C - D7 - F - G

 C                     D7
Castles in the country see the maids of air
 F			       C/E    G/D
Rambling fires and canopies contain us
         C			  D7
And the waters of the countryside wash away our cares
 F                      C/E    G/D
Leave the city lights behind us
