                  Leaves fall         in the cool October air

                  Days grow short         and I can't remember where
                                       C       Dm                   E7                               Am 
                  I saw you last         turned against the summer light
                                   C     Dm                                   E7                     F

                                         C         Dm                                 E7                                             Am 
                  Sands will drift         and tides will turn and I can't wrestle
                                     C     Dm                           E7                                             Am 
                  with the sea         rearrange the sky or fight
                                           C       Dm           E7                           F 
                  against the wind         any more than I can bring
                   F           Fm                                     C 
                        you back         to me
