IntroD/G/D/G/AD
I stood out on the road
GD
and I watched as you were leaving.
GDA
The leaves were dancing oranges and reds
DGD
and they circled all around me like confetti on fire.
GDA
They were nothing when compared to the burning in my head.
BmG
I was lost, I was gone,
DAG
I was falling for you.
D
That summer came and went.
GD
You were working for my family,
GDA
one more job and then your classes would begin.
DGD
And you promised we'd be quiet, and we hid behind the garden.
GDA
I walked out more than a woman than I walked in.
BmG
And I was lost, I was gone,
DA
I was falling.
BmG
I was lost, I was gone,
DAGD
I was falling for you.
ABm
I went down to the church,
(A)G
I offered my confession.
(A)D
I swore I'd never do it again,
(A)Bm
I swore I learned my lesson.
BmA
Oh, but every year when the leaves appear
GA
your memory comes sweet and clear.
D
I never will forget you
AGm
and I never did regret you.
BmGDA
I was lost, I was gone, I was falling.
BmGDA
I was lost, I was gone, I was falling.
D
I stood out on the road
GD
and I watched as you were leaving.
GDA
The leaves were dancing oranges and reds
