verse 1 
Am 
     Met in the dark of night 
Am7/C 
     you were my lucky strike 
     G                      F 
     crazy kids without a clue; 
Am 
     hanging from our knees up 
Am7/C 
     in the willow trees 
     G                      Dm 
     easy like the month of June; 
Am 
     a fairytale gone right 
C 
     with no ending in sight 
     G                    Dm 
     had me tangled up in blue; 
Am                             C             G Dm7 
     you said we'd never change but maybe we do... 


Pre-Chorus 1 
             F                Dm7 Am 
Baby this is all we ever used to  know  
                   F                         Gsus4 G 
But I can see your colours change to red and gold 

 
      Am 
Every moment will hurt, 
             C 
from the last to the first; 
        G                           Dm9 
and I'm trying find a way to breathe;  
          Am                      C 
Close the book and the chapter forever and after;  
    G                              Dm9 
I'm falling like the autumn leaves;  
   Am                      C 
my heart is beating like a million drums; 
     G                               Dm9 
'cuz you're the ground under my feet;  
    F                                         Gsus4 G 
I'm trying to hold on but baby I'm falling free;  
n.c. 
Like the autumn leaves  


INTERLUDE 
Fmaj7 | Am 
           Like the autumn leaves 
Fmaj9 | Am          G 


Pre-Chorus 2 
             F                     Am G 
Baby this is all I ever had to know  
                   F                         Gsus4 G 
Now I can see your colours change to red and gold 

      Am 
Every moment will hurt, 
             C 
from the last to the first; 
        G                           Dm9 
and I'm trying find a way to breathe;  
          Am                      C 
Close the book and the chapter forever and after;  
    G                              Dm9 
I'm falling like the autumn leaves;  
   Am                      C 
my heart is beating like a million drums; 
     G                               Dm9 
'cuz you're the ground under my feet;  
    F                                         Gsus4 G 
I'm trying to hold on but baby I'm falling free;  
n.c. 
Like the autumn leaves
