Key of E.
Capo on 4th fret and play these chord-shapes


Tahi, rua, toru, wha!

C       
Sleighbells ring, are you listening?
             G
Sunburn sting, ice blocks glistening
        G7       D7        C          G7
The beautiful sight of barbies alight
C                          G                  C
Strolling through a summer wonderland


 
Pour the sav in the sunshine
               G
serve the pav up at lunchtime.
            G7             D7       C              G7
Pop the bubbles for Nan, pineapples on ham
C                          G                  C
Strolling through a summer wonderland

Bridge

E                A                   E
In the arvo we can grab the wickets
                           A                      E
And plastic cricket bat your brother found
G                    C                    G
Backyard full of all your distant rellies
          G7                    A                G7
So we pass the can of mozzie spray around

Second verse

        C
Later on, sun is falling,
        G
And your drunk uncle's snoring
                     G              D7      C                  G7
We'll hear the birds in the trees, feel the warm breeze,
C                          G                  C
Strolling through a summer wonderland

               C
Way down here, Christmas landmarks
                   G
Are summer flowers and funny tan marks.
         G             D7              C             G7
We're happy and bright, not a snowman in sight,
C                        G
Strolling through a summer ...
C                        G
Strolling through a summer ...
C                        G                    C
Strolling through a summer wonderland.


Jules Dennison was Roman's musical director
