Em Em9 Em Am7 D7 GM7 G6
The au - tumn leaves drift by my window,
Am6 B7 Em Em9 Em
The autumn leaves of red and gold.
Em Em9 Em Am7 D7 GM7 G6
I see your lips, the summer kisses,
Am6 B7 Em
The sunburned hands I used to hold.
B+ Em B7 Em
Since you went away, the days grow long,
Em7 Em D7 D D7 G
And soon I'll hear old win - ter's song;
CdimIV CdimI B7 Em Em9 Em
But I miss you most of all, my Dar - ling,
A Am7 B7 Em Am7 Am6 Em(9)
When au - tumn leaves start to fall.
