Intro: Em7 Dm7 G7
C B7
Leaves come tumbling down 'round my head
C A7
Some of them are brown, some are red
D7 G7
Beautiful to see, but reminding me
C Ab G C
Of a faded summer love
C B7
Swaying high above in the trees
C A7
They were so in love with the breeze
D7 G7
Now the autumn wind brings to them the end
C Ab G C
Of a faded summer love
Dm Em Dm G7
I'm like the poor leaves that sway with the breeze
C
I thought that life was sweet
Dm Em Dm G7
You are the sweet breeze that tried hard to please
D7 G7
Then swept me off my feet
C B7
Summer morning dew turns to frost
C A7
Leaves that once were new pay the cost
D7 G7
Beautiful to see, but reminding me
C Ab G C
Of a faded summer love
