[ A ] if ever theres a reason to be swept up in the season
of the [ E ] fallen leaves
and [ A ] if the days grew shorter
and the darkness drew its order
from the [ E ] autumn grey

id [ D ] rather sit this [ Dm ] out and sleep the [ A ] day away instead
my [ D ] weary eyes A [ Dm ] bit too slow in [ A ] deed [ A7 ]
id [ D ] rather sit this [ Dm ] out and sleep the
[ A ] day A [ a add G# ] way in [ a add F# ] stead [ a add E ]
to [ B7 ] worry about the emptiness that [ E7 ] comes

( instrumental interlude [ A ] , [ A7 ] , [ D ] , [ Dm ] , [ A ] , [ A7 ] , [ D ] , [ Dm ] , [ A ] )

[ A ] if ever theres a need to watch the afternoon just roll into
the [ E ] evening sky
find [ A ] comfort in the finer things that keep you close that keep you safe
with [ E ] in this room

when it [ D ] comes [ A ] down to [ E ] me
and i [ D ] grit [ A ] my [ E ] teeth
and i [ D ] start [ A ] to [ E ] stall
when it [ D ] comes [ A ] down to [ E ] me

[ A ] if ever theres a reason to be swept up in the season
of the [ E ] fallen leaves
and [ A ] if the days grew shorter
and the darkness drew its order
from the [ E ] autumn grey

id [ D ] rather sit this [ Dm ] out and sleep the [ A ] day away instead
my [ D ] weary eyes A [ Dm ] bit too slow in [ A ] deed [ A7 ]
id [ D ] rather sit this [ Dm ] out and sleep the [ A ] day A [ a add G# ] way in [ a add F# ] stead [ a add E ]
to [ B7 ] worry about the emptiness that [ E7 ] comes
to [ B7 ] worry about the emptiness that [ E7 ] comes
