It was the [C]summer of my [G]discon[F]tent
It was the [C]ball of a [G]lifetime[F]
It was the [C]winter of my ([G]penny ?) ab[F]sence
[C]Waiting on the [G]spring[F]time
Well, there was [C]dark sack[G]cloth and [F]ashes[C]
For a [G]couple-a [F]years
I took my [C]licks and my [G]hundred [F]lashes
I cri[C]ed a bundle [G]of tears[F]
CHORUS:
Well, that [G]distant shore's for[A]ever out of reach
Be[Dm]fore you know it, you're [F]washed up on the beach
And yet, you're [C]welcome [G]back[F]
It was a pretty dark [C]day[G][F]
And now the sun is shining, [C]welcome [G]back[F]
I'll just zoom on my [C]way[G][F]
Well, I was [C]bent, but I [G]was not [F]broken
I was [C]sinking, but I [G]could not [F]drown
I was [C]reeling, but I [G]was still [F]hoping
I could be [C]lost and [G]found[F]
Well, I was [C]temporarily [G]discon[F]nected
In my [C]state of [G]disre[F]pair
Dis[C]oriented [G]and de[F]jected
I had to [C]climb out of [G]there[F]
