Autumn Song

Am Dm On a misty autumn morning Am Dm You can hear the wild birds call G Am Giving chilly winter warning E C Am That the evening star will fall. Am Dm I feel the wind that sings their crying Am Dm I wish the dying sun goodbye G Am And I stand to see them flying E C Am To a warm and welcome sky. Am Dm And I stay to meet cold winter G E To crunch the crackling ice and snow F G To walk alone beneath bare branches E Am And wonder why you had to go. Am Dm The empty rooms they echo laughter Am Dm The broken door creaks one more song G Am And in the silence that comes after E C Am The dusty floors, they ask 'how long?' And I stay to meet... etc Am Dm Soon I'll find winter clothes to hold me Am Dm And wrap myself against the cold G Am But frost and fire, they never told me E C Am There is no peace in growing old. E There is no peace in growing ... old
