VERSE 1
G                                  C  G
These are the days of the endless summer
D                               G
These are the days, the time is now
G                               C  G
There is no past, there's only future
D                                G
There's only here, there's only now 
 
VERSE 2
Oh your smiling face, your gracious presence
The fires of spring are kindling bright
Oh the radiant heart and the song of glory
Crying freedom in the night 
 
CHORUS:
 
C                                    G
These are the days by the sparkling river
D                                   G
His timely grace and our treasured find
C                             G
This is the love of the one magician
D                     G
Turned the water into wine 
 
VERSE 3
 
These are days of the endless dancing and the
Long walks on the summer night
These are the days of the true romancing
When I'm holding you oh, so tight 
 
CHORUS
 
VERSE 4
 
These are the days now that we must savour
And we must enjoy as we can
These are the days that will last forever
You've got to hold them in your heart.
