Intro:                                C  -   Fmaj7   -  G 
 
           Am                                          Fmaj7 
I was born in the heart of a hurricane season 
            G                                             Am7 
In the house where my mamma was raised 
         G                
That old september wind, 
               Fmaj7 
feels just like a long lost friend 
      G 
And I..... 
             C                           Fmaj7        G 
I wanna run through those cottonwood trees 
        C              Fmaj7      G 
Fall asleep in a big bed of fresh fallen leaves 
            Am                  G                       Fmaj7 
And in every wind that blows , there's a song of letting go 
            G                 C   Fmaj7   G 
It's not goodbye, it's hello 
C             Fmaj7            G 
 
                 Am                                               Fmaj7        
When we met underneath the blue skies of summer 
                   G                                 Am7 
And those summer skies turn into fall 
          G                                               Fmaj7 
That sweet september wind made us so much more than friends 
          G 
One Night..... 
             C                           Fmaj7        G 
And we ran through those cottonwood trees 
                C              Fmaj7      G 
We made love in a big bed of fresh fallen leaves 
            Am                  G                       Fmaj7 
And in every wind that blows , there's a innocence that knows 
            G                 C    
It's not goodbye, it's hello 
            Fmaj7                             G 
In that moment that one thing ends 
           Fmaj7                    G 
Is the same time that one begins 
          Am              G 
And return as we must 
               Am7       Em - Fmaj7 - G 
We are ashes to dust, amen 
 
 
Solo: 
 
  Am - Fmaj7 - G - Am7 - G - Fmaj7 - G 
 
 
      Am                        Fmaj7 
When the days of my youth have all faded  
        G                     Am7 
And the memories are all that remain  
         G                          Fmaj7 
Let that old September wind take me back to where I've been 
   G 
So I...  
      C                 Fmaj7      G 
I can run through those cottonwood trees  
    C            Fmaj7          G 
And remember the smell of those fresh fallen leaves  
       Am              G              Fmaj7 
Now in every wind that blows there's a part of me that knows  
         G            (C  -  Fmaj7  -  G  x  2) 
It's not goodbye, it's hello
