Autumn Lover

[Intro ]

Am C G G 

Am                         C 
We fell out just like the leaves, 
G                             G 
Cold and withered fore they even hit the ground 
Am                             C 
But even if they were turnin green 
            G                       G 
Theyd be stirrin up dirt like an old ridge plow 

Am C G G 

Am                        C 
And I remember snow was fallin 
G                        G 
On the day you started runnin from yourself 
Am                                C 
And I could hear the pine trees callin 
            G                                 G 
They were shakin with the wind as you were puttin me through hell 

      Am                      C 
And I envy the evergreens as light shines in bright white beams 
G                                      Am 
Boasting that they never change their color 
       Am                                C 
And at best you were the moon to me a different light most every week 
           G                                     Am 
With your pride and lies were acting like cloud cover 

Am C G 

Am                              C 
And Ive sure seen some warmer days 
G                               G 
Than when you cut me down and blood rushed out my veins 
Am                              C 
You might as well have shot me dead 
                  G                             Am 
Cause Id have rather gone to glory but I was stuck with you instead 


       Am 
And it hurt like hell to touch your hand 
        C 
Like frostbite eatin up my skin 
         G                        G 
youre cold enough to make body shudder 
         Am 
Cause winter takes a toll on me 
      C 
Like cold and rotten iced up trees 
           G                                   G 
And thats what I found in search of an autumn lover 


       Am                      C 
And I envy the evergreens as light shines in bright white beams 
G                                      Am 
Boasting that they never change their color 
       Am                                C 
And at best you were the moon to me a different light most every week 
           G                                     Am 
With your pride and lies were acting like cloud cover

       Am                      C 
And I envy the evergreens as light shines in bright white beams 
G                                      Am 
Boasting that they never change their color 
       Am                                C 
And at best you were the moon to me a different light most every week 
           G                                     Am 
With your pride and lies were acting like cloud cover 
            G                                   Am     C    G    G 
And thats what I found in search of an Autumn lover
