Capo on 3rd fret |
Intro: |
Leaves are fallin' It's September |
The night came in and made her shiver |
I told her she could have my jacket |
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders |
And I was so young |
'Till she kissed me |
Like a whiskey |
Like a whiskey |
I never knew that love was blind |
'Till I was hers |
But she was never mine |
Yeah, I was reckless |
But I let it burn |
I let it burn, yeah |
The feeling, it was bittersweet |
Realizing I was in too deep |
She was a lesson |
I had to learn |
I had to learn, yeah |
I used to try |
To forget her |
But now I smile |
When I remember |
Leaves are fallin' It's September |
The night came in and made her shiver |
I told her she could have my jacket |
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders |
And I was so young |
'Till she kissed me |
Like a whiskey |
Like a whiskey |
Would've left this world behind |
Just to wake up by your side |
Every mornin' I |
Would've sold my soul |
For a little more time |
Would've waited a thousand nights |
If she never said goodbye |
I admit that I |
Would've sold my soul |
For a little more time |
I used to try |
To forget her |
But now I smile |
When I remember |
Leaves are fallin' It's September |
The night came in and made her shiver |
I told her she could have my jacket |
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders |
And I was so young |
'Till she kissed me |
Like a whiskey |
Like a whiskey |
I ain't like the other Cognacs |
Or type of cat that'd never call back |
Or lose contact when you runnin' out of rum |
And you make a run |
(Feelin' light and dizzy, might be tipsy) |
All of that tequila's a killer, little vodka |
Break her off somethin' proper |
Pop a cork and play spin the bottle |
(Every time you kiss me, like some whiskey) |
Punch drunk love, it's a fine line |
Dom Pérignon, she the fine wine |
Someone call 911, I'm runnin' out of time |
She done got off my heart |
Leaves are fallin' It's September |
The night came in and made her shiver |
I told her she could have my jacket |
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders |
And I was so young (So Young) |
'Till she kissed me (Yeah) |
Like a whiskey (Yeah) |
And I was so young (So Young) |
'Till she kissed me |
Like a whiskey |
Like a whiskey |
