1.       Imagine a still summer' s day, 
                 G#          Cm      G#           G 
    when nothing is moving, least of all me. 
      Cm           D#               F 
    I lay on my back in the hay, 
         G#                    Cm             D#  G#   G                  Cm   A#  G#    G        
 the warm sun was soothing, it made me feel good,, the day   I    met   Marie. 
  
        Cm                      D#             F 
2. The sound of the whispered "Hallo" 
              G#             Cm      G#        G 
    came tip-toeing  softly,, into my head. 
    Cm                 D#                 F 
    I opened my eyes kind of slow, 
            G#                 Cm                D#     G#   G                    Cm     A#   G# 
   and there she was smiling, and made-me   feel-good,   the day      I     met 
  
  D#  
Marie, with her laughing eyes she tossed her hair, 
                                 A# 
and tantalized she came to touch me, 
                                  G#                        D#              D# - A# - G# - D# 
then she'd gone just like the summer breeze.  (=Instr. refrain) 
  
       G#                             Gm                                  G#                        
  I remember her tears so soft on my brow, and the way that she said, ~ 
  G#                                    Fm                    G#           - D# 
    "Baby, go to sleep now,      baby, go to sleep now." 
  
       Cm                 D#           F          G#                Cm     G#          G 
3. I woke with the chill in the air,the warm sun no longer hung in the sky. 
      Cm                    D#                    F 
    I reached out but she was not there,~~ 
               G#                    Cm                    D#      G#        G                     
    she'd gone where she came from, but~ I       still feel good 
         Cm   A#    G# 
    to think   I've   known    
  
           D#  
Marie, with her laughing eyes she tossed her hair, 
                                  A# 
and tantalized she came to touch me, 
                                 G#                         D#        D# - A# - G# - D# 
then she'd gone just like the summer breeze.      (=Instr. refrain) 
	             A#	                            G#                         D# 
She came because she came , she’d gone like the summer breeze
