Introduction:
Eb
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
Bb
I told her she could have my jacket
Gm
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
Eb Bb
And I was so young 'til she kissed me
Gm Eb
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
verse 1
I never knew that love was blind
Bb Gm
'Til I was hers, but she was never mine
Eb
Yeah, I was reckless
Bb Gm
But I let it burn, I let it burn, yeah
Eb
The feeling, it was bittersweet
Bb Gm
Realizing I was in too deep
Eb
She was a lesson
Bb Gm
I had to learn, I had to learn, yeah
Pre-Chorus
Eb
I used to try to forget her
Bb Gm
But now I smile when I remember
Eb
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
Bb
I told her she could have my jacket
Gm
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
Eb Bb
And I was so young 'til she kissed me
Gm Eb
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
Bb
Ohohohoho, like a whiskey
Gm
Ohohohoho
verse 2
Eb
Would've left this world behind
Just to wake up by your side
Every mornin' I
Bb Gm
Would've sold my soul for a little more time, mmmm
Eb
Would've waited a thousand nights
If she never said goodbye
Eb
I admit that I
Gm
Would've sold my soul for a little more time
Pre-Chorus
Eb
I used to try to forget her
Bb Gm
But now I smile when I remember
Eb
Leaves are fallin', it's September

verse 3
I ain't like the other Cognacs
Or type of cat that'd never call back
Bb Gm
Or lose contact when you runnin' out of rum and you make a run
Eb
(Feelin' light and dizzy, might be tipsy)
All of that tequila's a killer, little vodka
Break her off somethin' proper
Bb
Pop a cork and play spin the bottle
Gm Eb
(Every time you kiss me, like some whiskey)
Punch drunk love, it's a fine line
Dom Pérignon, she the fine wine
Eb Gm
Someone call 911, I'm runnin' out of time
She done got off my heart
Eb
Leaves are fallin', it's September
The night came in and made her shiver
Bb
I told her she could have my jacket
Gm
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders
Eb Bb
And I was so young 'til she kissed me
Gm Eb
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
Bb
And I was so young 'til she kissed me
Gm Eb
Like a whiskey, like a whiskey
