[Verse 1]
E A E
They burn that hillside black
E A E
They lay the maple down on It's back
E A
For just one stardust stone
E
Sleeping innocent below.
E A E
But they'll run when the warm rain comes
A E B
Roaring with the thunder
E A E
I'll rise up from the murky mud
E
When the summer storm begins the flood.
[Verse 2]
E A E
I'll hide way up high
E A E
Until the water runs down the pike
E A E
To wash aside all the parasites
E
And take the valley back alive.
E A E
The Tug flows and the rubbish floats
A E B
to hang up on the high oak
E A E
The power goes to the undergrowth
E
When the summer storm begins to blow.

[Verse 3]
E A E
Free me, let me go
E A E
They don't recognize a precious stone
E A E
I'll lay low 'til the wet wind blows
E
To take me tumblin' down the road
E A E
The wood vines make it hard to fly
A E B
The anchor holds my rope down
E A E
There's no use trying to make it out alive
E
And like a summer storm I've gotta roam.
