Chords

Am7 C#79 GM7
The falling leaves drift by my window
CM7 Fm75 B7 Em7
The autumn leaves of red and gold

Am7 C#79 GM7
I see your lips, the summer kisses
CM7 Fm75 B7 Em7
The sunburnt hands I used to hold

[Chorus]

Fm75 B7 Em7
Since you went away the days grow long
D7 GM7 CM7
And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song
Fm75 Dm75
But I miss you most of all
Em
my darling,
Fm75 A#79 Em
When Autumn leaves start to fall

[Solo over Verse chords]

Fm75 B7 Em7
Since you went away the days grow long
D7 GM7 CM7
And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song
Fm75 Dm75
But I miss you most of all
Em
my darling,
Fm75 A#79 Em
When Autumn leaves start to fall
