C7+ C7+ G6 Em |
C7+ |
Leaves are fallin' It's September |
C7+ |
The night came in and made her shiver |
G6 |
I told her she could have my jacket |
E11 |
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders |
C7+ C7+ |
And I was so young |
G6 |
'Till she kissed me |
E11 |
Like a whiskey |
C7+ |
Like a whiskey |
C7+ G6 |
I never knew that love was blind |
'Till I was hers |
E11 |
But she was never mine |
C7+ |
Yeah, I was reckless |
C7+ |
But I let it burn |
G6 E11 C7+ |
I let it burn, yeah |
C7+ G6 |
The feeling, it was bittersweet |
E11 |
Realizing I was in too deep |
C7+ |
She was a lesson |
C7+ |
I had to learn |
G6 E11 |
I had to learn, yeah |
C7+ |
I used to try |
C7+ |
To forget her |
G6 |
But now I smile |
E11 |
When I remember |
C7+ |
Leaves are fallin' It's September |
C7+ |
The night came in and made her shiver |
G6 |
I told her she could have my jacket |
E11 |
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders |
C7+ C7+ |
And I was so young |
G6 |
'Till she kissed me |
E11 |
Like a whiskey |
C7+ |
Like a whiskey |
C7+ |
Would've left this world behind |
C7+ |
Just to wake up by your side |
G6 |
Every mornin' I |
Would've sold my soul |
E11 |
For a little more time |
C7+ |
Would've waited a thousand nights |
C7+ |
If she never said goodbye |
G6 |
I admit that I |
Would've sold my soul |
E11 |
For a little more time |
C7+ |
I used to try |
C7+ |
To forget her |
G6 |
But now I smile |
E11 |
When I remember |
C7+ |
Leaves are fallin' It's September |
C7+ |
The night came in and made her shiver |

C7+ C7+ |
And I was so young |
G6 |
'Till she kissed me |
E11 |
Like a whiskey |
C7+ |
Like a whiskey |
I ain't like the other Cognacs |
C7+ |
Or type of cat that'd never call back |
G6 |
Or lose contact when you runnin' out of rum |
E11 |
And you make a run |
C7+ |
(Feelin' light and dizzy, might be tipsy) |
C7+ |
All of that tequila's a killer, little vodka |
G6 |
Break her off somethin' proper |
E11 |
Pop a cork and play spin the bottle |
C7+ |
(Every time you kiss me, like some whiskey) |
C7+ |
Punch drunk love, it's a fine line |
G6 |
Dom Pérignon, she the fine wine |
E11 |
Someone call 911, I'm runnin' out of time |
She done got off my heart |
C7+ |
Leaves are fallin' It's September |
C7+ |
The night came in and made her shiver |
G6 |
I told her she could have my jacket |
E11 |
Wrapped it tight around her shoulders |
C7+ C7+ |
And I was so young (So Young) |
G6 |
'Till she kissed me (Yeah) |
E11 |
Like a whiskey (Yeah) |
C7+ C7+ |
And I was so young (So Young) |
G6 |
'Till she kissed me |
E11 |
Like a whiskey |
Em |
