[Verse 1]
         D/A                  C/G
1st of October, the summer's over
                 D/A               
The leaves are falling all around 
   C/G
my door
                D/A                
The midnight walking, early morning
  C/G
 talking
                     D/A     
Can't you hear us whispering, 
                      C/G
walking across your floor
                  D/A
Walking on your floor

[Verse 2]
                  D/A              
Well, I'm going deeper, my 
    C/G
brother's keeper
             D/A                  
I'm looking out for him the best I
C/G
 can
              D/A              
He's getting older, the year is 
   C/G
colder
                       D/A         
Got to lean a little closer now and
                 C/G
 hear what he's saying
              D/A
Hear what he says

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
                D/A              
We'll go out rambling all through 
        C/G
the brambling
               D/A             C/G
Long shadows falling far out ahead
                     D/A         
The rose hips have grown now, the 
               C/G
year is in slowdown
                          D/A      
Your long hair and long dress, let 
              C/G
them fall for me
                  D/A
Let them fall for me

[Pre-Chorus]
     C/G              Bm
And will you wait for me to come 
home?
 C/G              D/A
Will you wait for me?

| C/G | D/A | C/G |

[Chorus]
 D/A C/G D/A                     C/G
Brotherrrrrr, put that weight on me
 D/A C/G D/A                     C/G
Brotherrrrrr, put that weight on me

[Verse 4]
                   D/A             
Great works don't lie there, grind 
        C/G
up and dry there
                  D/A              
They wait for impatiently your 
      C/G
hands to find
                  D/A            
Leaf through the pages, can't you 
           C/G
feel the ages
              D/A           
Rise up like dust now in the 
           C/G
sunlight there
          D/A
In the sunlight

Will you wait for me?
