Scattered Leaves

Em
Don't you go lookin' so surprised, 
baby don't you look so stunned
D                           
Didn't I tell you that a cold 
     A                          Bm
November'd come
D                                 
And deliver the leaves from green 
          A
to red
Bm                                
To blowin' in the wind stone dead
   A


Verse 2:

Em
Well I never used to notice this 
awful quiet, mmmmh
D                                 
And fall was just the calm before 
                        A          
the next spring riot, mmmhh
               Bm

D                                 A
Of wildflowers and lunatic rivers -
Bm                             
Sweat jumping off of the skin of 
love givers, mmh (in the park)
 A


Chorus:

D                      A         Bm
Scattered leaves don't lie
D                      A         
Aw' now baby, baby, quit your 
             Bm
cryin'
Continues after the ad
D                                 
Like everything that ever 
                    A
mattered, scit-scat scattered
Bm
Like every love word you heard
D                              
But that's just the way when you 
                    A
walk your days
Bm
In the beauty of this world
(repeat)

Verse 3:

Em
pretty little disappointments all in
 a row
D                         
Been about a year since you 
                 A                 
disappeared through my door
                   Bm

D                                 
And now you come back with your 
                     A
head on straight,
Bm                                
But I got no love or hate left for
                     A
 you, girl

Verse 4:
Em
You must be the daughter of the 
late, late rose - I'm November's
Em
son
D                                 
And I'm here to tell you, honey, 
              A                    
ooh what's done is done
        Bm

D                                 
Yeah, I been claimed by the wind 
          A
and the rain
Bm
There ain't no going back, naw there
       A
 ain't no going back again (for us 
now)

Aw' now baby, baby, quit your 
             Bm
cryin'
D                                 
Like everything that ever 
                    A
mattered, scit-scat scattered
Bm
Like every love word you heard
D                              
But that's just the way when you 
                    A
walk your days
Bm
In the beauty of this world
