Summer stretching on the grass

In the shade of willow tree

Am G
There's and insect in your ear,
F Em
If you scratch it won't disappear
Am G
It's gonna itch and burn and sting,
F Em
You wanna see what the scratching brings
Am G
Waves that leave me out of reach
F Em
Breaking on your back like the beach
Am G
Will we ever live in peace?
F G
'Cause those that can't do, often have to
F G
and those that can't do often have to preach
C Am
to the ones, staring at the sun
D
afraid of what you'll find
G
if you took a look inside
C Am
not just deaf and dumb...staring the sun
D G
I'm not the only one who'd rather go blind
