"Simply one of the greatest songwriters alive."--Rolling Stone magazine
I tried to put the chords over the lyrics according to how they change.
INTRO:
I walked in my great coat, down through the days of leaves
No before, after, yes, after before
We were shining our light into the days of blooming wonder
In the eternal presence, in the presence of the flame
CHORUS:
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?
Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright?
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder----- in the flame?
On and on and on, we kept singing our song
Thru Newtonards and Comber, Gransha and the Ballystockart Road
With Spike and Boffyflow, I said I would describe the leaves for Samuel
& Felicity
Rich, red, browney, half burnt orange and green
CHORUS:
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?
Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright?
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder----- in the flame?
BRIDGE:
It's easy to describe the leaves in the Autumn
And it's oh so easy in the Spring
But down through January and February
It's a very different thing
On and on and on, through the winter of our discontent
When the wind blows up the collar and the ears are frostbitten too
I said I could describe the leaves and what it means to you and me
X
You may call my love Sophia, but I call my love philosopy
CHORUS:
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?
Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright?
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder----- in the flame?
CHORUS:
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?
Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright?
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder----- in the flame?
