E                    Esus      E       Esus 
Leaves were falling  just like embers 
E                                     A 
In colors red and gold they set us on fire    
A                 E          
Burning just like moonbeams in our eyes 
B7                        E                         A 
Somebody said they saw me swinging the world by the tail 
A               E           B7             E     Esus 
Bouncing over a white cloud    killing the blues 


E                Esus    E    Esus 
Now I am guilty  of something 
E 
I hope you never do 
                 A 
Because there is nothing 
                       E 
Sadder than losing yourself in love 
B7                        E                         A 
Somebody said they saw me swinging the world by the tail 
A               E           B7             E     Esus 
Bouncing over a white cloud    killing the blues 


SOLO 


E                    Esus    E         Esus   
And then you ask me  just to leave you 

To set out on my own    
               A 
And get what I need to 
               E 
You want me to find what I've already had 
B7                        E                         A 
Somebody said they saw me swinging the world by the tail 
A               E           B7             E     Esus E 
Bouncing over a white cloud    killing the blues
