A Summer Wasting 

I think this song is played with a capo on the 2nd fret, that makes the
intro/outro the easiest to play.  I'll put the basic chords down, and also an
alternate, easier way to play them with the capo on (ie no barre chords).

Intro/Outro (relative to capo on 2nd fret)

e--------0-2--------3-2--------0-2--------9-7-(0)- <--(0) optional for intro
b----3----------3----------3----------3-------(3)- <--(3) optional for outro
G--2---2------2---2------2---2------2---2---------
D-------------------------------------------------
A-------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------

(intro played with this part)
Summer in winter
Winter in springtime
You heard the birds sing
Everything will be fine


F#m	    B
I spent the summer wasting

F#m	     B		   A
The time was passed so easily

F#m	   B
But if the summer's wasted

F#m	      B		     A
How come that I could feel so free

F#m	    B
I spent the summer wasting

F#m	    B		   A
The sky was blue beyond compare

F#m    B
A photograph of myself

F#m	 B
Is all I have to show for

E	       A
Seven weeks of river walkways

E	       D
Seven weeks of staying up all night

F#m   B (interlude)

I spent the summer wasting
The time was passed so pleasantly
Say cheerio to books now
The only things I'll read are faces
1 spent the summer wasting
Under a canopy of

E	       A
Seven weeks of reading papers

E	       A
Seven weeks of river walkways

E	       A
Seven weeks of feeling guilty

E	       D
Seven weeks of staying up all night

F#m   B (interlude)

(intro/outro played with this)
Summer in winter
Winter is springtime
You heard the bird say
Everything will be fine


Chord fingerings with the capo (all are relative to the capo):

	EADGbe

F#m:	022000
B:	x02220
A:	320033
E:	x00232
D:	x32010

so basically, an F#m is played like Em, B like an A, A like a G, etc.  I don't
know whether they actually play it like this...anyone notice if Stuart M. used
a capo for this at one of the shows?
