Am G
The summer sun is fading as the year grows old
F C Dm C G
And darker days are drawing near
F G
The winter winds will be much colder
Am
Now you're not here. (repeat intro)
[Verse 2]
Am G
I watch the birds fly south across the autumn sky
F C Dm C G
And one by one they disappear.
F G
I wish that I was flying with them
Am
Now you're not here.
[Chorus]
F C Bb Am
Like a song through the trees you came to love me
F C Bb Am Bbmaj7
Like a leaf on a breeze you blew away... (repeat intro)
[Verse 3]
Am G
Through autumn's golden gown we used to kick our way
F C Dm C G
You always loved this time of year.
F G
Those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now
Am G
'Cause you're not here. 'Cause you're not here.
Am
'Cause you're not here.
[Chorus]
F C Bb Am
Like a song through the trees you came to love me
F C Bb Am Bbmaj7
Like a leaf on a breeze you blew away... (repeat intro)
[Verse 4]
Am G
A gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes
F C Dm C G
As if to hide a lonely tear
F G
My life will be forever autumn...
[Outro]
Am G
'Cause you're not here. 'Cause you're not here.
Am
'Cause you're not here. (repeat and fade)
