The Summer Day Reflection Song Lyrics

...THE SUMMER DAY REFLECTION SONG... by Donovan
*from 'Fairytale' (1965)*
*CAPO 3rd FRET*
(Original Key: Bbm)
Intro:
Verse 1:
Cat's a-sleeping in the sun, eyes take heed; the colours call.
Sunlight patterns touch the wall, red ker-chiefs sail and fall.
Cat's a-sleeping in the sun.
Interlude:
Verse 2:
Dragon kite in the sky, wheel and turns, spin and fly.
Attacked by rooks and never fail, to cry the sound of fairy tales.
The cat is walkin' in the sun.
Interlude:
Verse 3:
All the pebbles I have seen; precious stones for Col-leen.
Every minute I pass through, with the grooves spent with you.
The cat is yawning in the sun.
Verse 4:
Jewelled castles I have built, with freak feel-ings of guilt.
And the words stab to the hilt, pick the flower and it will wilt.
Cat's a-shifting in the sun.
Verse 5:
Mario-nette dangles dead, insensi-tivity is fed.
By the TV wizard's wand; once in the spell, you're conned.
Cat's a-smiling in the sun.
Verse 6:
Cat's a-sleeping in the sun, eyes take heed; the colours call.
Sunlight patterns touch the wall, red ker-chiefs sail and fall.
Cat's a-smiling it to me.
