THE AUTUMN STONE
(Marriott-Lane)

From the LP 'The Autumn Stone'

  but it's easy enough to play once you got the hang of it.

              F#madd11 
I was nowhere,
                          
Til you changed my mind.
                                        F#madd11 
Love is sent through being good to you.

F#madd11                F#madd11 
Then you were somewhere,

Somewhere hard to find,
                                      F#madd11 
Only what you always were, it's true.

 F#madd11 

                  
I'm looking for an open door,
                                            F#madd11 
Where I can sit and play in peace and quiet.

 F#madd11  (x2)

                  F#madd11 
Tomorrow changes.

 F#madd11 


Fields of green today,
                                    F#madd11 
Yesterday is dead, but not my memory.

 F#madd11 

                  F#madd11 
We were strangers.

And then you came to stay,
                                             F#madd11 
The sweetest spring old morning sings to me.

 F#madd11 

                   
So now I've found a living sound,
                                                    F#madd11 
That moves, that breathes, and then makes love to me.

 F#madd11
