The Autumn Winds

	  		Intro: G Am Bm C 

Verse 1:
 
                C      G 
Remembering her golden hair 
    C                  G       C      D 
The autumn leaves were rolling in the air 
                     C      G 
We walked beside the silver stream 
  C        Am     G 
I held her gentle hand 

Verse 2:
 
              C   G 
Clearly in my memory 
   C                G       C         D 
We had no cares for we were young and free 
                  C         G 
But she was swept away from me 
    C     Am   G 
and now I walk alone 


           G         Am 
If I could once more take you 
     Bm             C 
down by the flowing river 
           G         Am          Bm  C 
If I could once more hold you my love 


Instrumental: G Am Bm C 

Verse 3:
               C      G 
I met her on a Sunday night 
  C                    G         C   D 
I stopped to gaze when she came into sight 
                     C      G 
She smiled at me and then I knew 
      C      Am      G 
she’d cast a loving spell 

Verse 4:
 
                   C          G 
And even though the years has past 
   C                G     C         D 
my love for her has never ceased to last 
                       C        G 
and soon I know she’ll come for me 
    C        Am    G 
and take me in her arms 


           G         Am 
If I could once more take you 
     Bm             C 
down by the flowing river 
           G         Am          Bm  C 
If I could once more hold you my love 
        G             Am 
All the beauty of the forest, 
   Bm               C 
it can’t compare to you, 
           G         Am          Bm C 
if I could once more hold you my love

Remembering her golden hair

We walked beside the silver stream 
  C        Am     G
