   G    Em   Am7      D        G   Em  Am7	             
There's            a summer place

      D       G      Am7      D       G       Am7	     
Where it may rain or storm, yet I'm safe and warm

D       G  Em  Am7	  D       G   Em   Am7
For within         that summer place

      D         G      Am7
Your arms reach out to me,

D       G       Am7    D        G   Em  Am7  D	     G    Em  Am7  D
And my heart is free from all cares         for it knows


Bridge:

          G          D          Em              Bm
There are no gloomy skies when seen through the eyes

   Em            Am7            D7
Of those who are blessed with love.


                      G  Em Am7    D      G   Em  Am7
And the sweet secret of         a summer place

    D        G    Am7  D        G     Am7
Is that it's anywhere when two people share

 D	    G  Em  Am7 D          G  Em Am7 D         G (KEY CHANGE) G7
All their hopes,      all their dreams,    all their love.
 

  C     Am F     G7      C  Am7  F      G7       C  Am7    F	         
There's       a summer place      where it may rain     or storm,

 G7      C  Am7       F  G7	   C  Am7  F
Yet I'm safe    and warm in your arms, 


	G7	  C  Am7  F   G7       C   F   C	
	In your arms,         in your arms.
