forever autumn chords
the moody blues *

Dm C
the summer sun is fading as the year grows old ,
A# Am C
and darker days are drawing near
A# Am C
the winter winds will be much colder ,
Dm
now you’re not here

Dm C
i watch the birds fly south across the autumn sky ,
A# Am C
and one by one they disappear .
A# Am C
i wish that i was flying with them ,
Dm
now you’re not here .

A# F D# Dm
like a song through the trees you came to love me;
A# F D# Dm C A# Am D# Dm
like a leaf on a breeze you blew away

Dm C
through autumn’s golden gown we used to kick our way ,
A# Am C
you always loved this time of year .
A# Am C
those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now ,
Dm C
’cause you’re not here . ’cause you’re not here .
Dm
’cause you’re not here .

A# F D# Dm
like a song through the trees you came to love me;
A# F D# Dm C A# Am D# Dm
like a leaf on a breeze you blew away

Dm C
a gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes ,
A# Am C
as if to hide a lonely tear
A# Am C
my life will be forever autumn ,

Dm C
’cause you’re not here . ’cause you’re not here .
Dm
’cause you’re not here . 2
