Cooling Winds

C G Dm Am F C G G C G Dm Am The summmer it was long and the heat kept up for weeks F C G G I was nearly all dried up and you got itchy feet C G Dm Am I tried to keep us focused and I tried hard to mend F C G G And then one night I just let go, you took your chance and fled Dm Am C G And I was wishing you had stayed 'cause the heat was bound to end F C G F F When the cooling winds of autumn blow out here again Am C G F 2x C G Dm Am The photos of yourself you left them on the shelf F C G G I know you didn't want them they're for me to think about C G Dm Am Could there be something else you might have left behind? F C G G Something you might be needing at some time? Dm Am C G For I wish I could've held you a little longer than I did F C G F F 'Til the cooling winds of autumn had blown out here again G F C Well I see you in my dreams and you're doggin' all my days Am G F C With that look of sorrow on your face I couldn't take away G F C Well did someone hurt you when you were just a child? Am G F C Well I swear if I ever found who did, they'd pay for their crime Dm Am C G There might have been a way to take our pain away F C G F F But the cooling winds of autumn didn't blow here on that day Am C G F 4x C G Dm Am The weeks pass by so slowly and the months turn into years F C G G It'll still be from you that I long to hear C G Dm Am When I think of how we parted I still can't work out why F C G G We loved each other hard enough you'd think we'd be alright Dm Am C G Well have you found a place where quiet waters dwell? F C G F F And do the cooling winds of autumn blow out there as well? Am C G F 4x Am
