Introduction:  Em7   Dm7   G7  

 C                                                   B7 
Leaves come tumbling down 'round my head
 C                                             A7 
Some of them are brown, some are red
 D7                               G7 
Beautiful to see, but reminding me
 C                   Ab   G     C 
Of a faded summer love
 C                                   B7 
Swaying high above in the trees
 C                                       A7 
They were so in love with the breeze
 D7                                   G7 
Now the autumn wind brings to them the end
 C                   Ab   G     C 
Of a faded summer love

I'm like the poor leaves that sway with the breeze

I thought that life was sweet

You are the sweet breeze that tried hard to please
 D7                                     G7 
Then swept me off my feet
 C                                   B7 
Summer morning dew turns to frost
 C                                                 A7 
Leaves that once were new pay the cost
 D7                               G7 
Beautiful to see, but reminding me
 C                   Ab   G     C 
Of a faded summer love

Then swept me off my feet
 C                                   B7 
Summer morning dew turns to frost
