[Intro 1]
[A][D][Bm][G][A][D][G][D][Bm][G][A]
[D][G][D]

[Verse 1]
By the mansion on [Bm]the hillside
[G]Red sports car comes dri[A]ving
down the [D]road[G][D]
And pulls up into the drive[Bm]way[G]
And [A]a story does unfold
[D][G]

[Verse 2]
[D]She's standing by
the rhododendron[Bm]s[G]
Where the [A]roses are in [D]bloom[G]
[D]Looking out at the Atlantic oce[Bm]an
[G]And in her hea[A]d she hums this tun[D]e[G]

[Verse 3]
[D]Thank God the dark nights
are drawing in [Bm]again
[G]'cause high summer[A] has got
me [D]down[G][D]
I'll wait till the end [Bm]of August
[G]And get off this mer[A]ry-go-round

[Verse 4]
And [D]And [G]And[D] they shut
him out of para[Bm]dise[D][G]
[A]Called him Lucifer and [D]frowned[G]
[D]She took pride in what God made him[Bm]
Even before the an[G]gels shot [A]him
down to the ground
[D][G]

[Verse 5]
[D]
He's a light out of the dark[Bm]ness
[G]And he [A]wears a starry cro[D]wn[G][D]
If you see him, nothing [Bm]will shake him
[G]'cause high summer[A] has got him low dow[D]n[G]
[D]

[Interlude 1]
[Bm][G][D][G][D][Bm][G][D]
[G][D]

[Verse 6]
High summer's got him [Em]lonesome
[A]Even when he mak[Bm]es the rounds
[G]There's been no two ways about it[Em]
[A]High summer's got him
low down
[D][G]

[Verse 7]
[D]
Checked in to the tiny
village [Bm]by the lakeside
[G]Settled dow[A]n to start a n[D]ew[G][D]
Far away from the politi[Bm]cians[G]
And the [A]many chosen few
[D][G]

[Verse 8]
[D]
Far away from the jealousy [Bm]factor
[G]And everything that was [A]tearing
him [D]apart[G][D]
Far away from the organ [Bm]grinder
[G]And everyone tha[A]t played
their part
[D][G]

[Verse 9]
[D]
And they shut him out [Bm]of paradise
[G]Called him Lu [A]cifer and fro[D]wned[G]
[D]'Cause he took pride in what
God made [Bm]him
[D]Even before [G]the angels [A]shot him
to the ground
[D][G]

[Verse 10]
[D]
He's a light out of the dark[Bm]ness
[G]And he [A]wears a starry cro[D]wn[G][D]
If you see him nothings [Bm]shaken
[G]'cause high summer[A]'s got him[D] low dow[G]n[D]
[Bm]

[Interlude 2]

[D]

[Verse 11]
High summer's [Bm]on the rebound
[G]High summer's [A]got
him low [D]down[G][D]
High summer's on the re[Bm]bound[G]
High sum[A]mer's got
him down, low [D]down[G][D]
High summer's on the re[Bm]bound[G]
High sum[A]mer's got him low [D]down[G]
Low down
[D]
