Autumn Tab

by Strawbs


                    
I sense Autumn coming on
                         
The mist has hung low all day
                           
Small birds gather on the wing
                        
Preparing to make their way.
                                         
The leaves begin to show
                    
A trace of brown among the green
                    
Bringing back the memories
           B7th
That only you and I have seen. 
                    
I sense Autumn coming on
                       
The sun sinking red and deep
                         
The fires burning in the fields
                    
As late Summer falls asleep.
               
The leaves begin to scatter
                                     
As the North wind calls their name
                       
Folding gently back into
         
B7th                                                         
                                                                        
           B7th               B7th       open                             
The silent earth from which they came.

Still waters flow
             
Sea breezes blow
            
Wild flowers grow
                 
Abundant at your feet.
             
Soft falling snow
             
Warm candle glow
                
Flushed faces show
                   
The pleasure when we meet.

Hold on to me, I'll hold on to you
                                                 
The winter long I will always be with you.
                                     
Hold on to me, I'll hold on to you
                                                           
I will be the one who will always see you through.

                                   
Hold on to me, I'll hold on to you
                                                 
The winter long I will always be with you.
                                     
Hold on to me, I'll hold on to you
                                   
I will be the one who will always see you through.    Em    D     A
