Autumn Lyrics
by Ben Rector
This tab works well for me playing and singing by myself, but Ben plays some
passing chords throughout the song on the piano, so its close but not perfect.
I play this song with an open E sound, so i play the E, A, B, and C#m chords like this:
Key: E
Intro:
So I knew a girl once
She was the one I adored
So I fell in love once
With the girl that I mentioned before
Pre-Chorus:
And I'm giving up slowly
Giving up slowly
Giving slowly love
And so I'm giving up slowly
Giving up slowly
Learning how to love someone
Chorus:
So look what you did to me
Look what you did to me
Look what you did to me autumn
I'm a leaf that's gone falling free
Beneath all the maple trees
In front of your house to the bottom
Verse 2:
So I watched the leaves fall
All of the way to the ground
And I knew that's what love was
To die so that it could be found
Pre-Chorus:
And they're giving up slowly
Giving up slowly
Giving slowly now
And so they're giving up slowly
Giving up slowly
Learning how to love someone
Chorus:
They say look what you did to me
Look what you did to me
Look what you did to me autumn
I'm a leaf that's gone falling free
Beneath all the maple trees
In front of this house to the bottom
Bridge:
Well, winter's chill won't leave until
I let it lay me down
And you can't see the spring
Til you're like the leaves
Here on the autumn ground
(flute interlude)
Pre-Chorus:
And I'm giving up slowly
Giving up slowly
Giving slowly love
And so I'm giving up
I'm give giving up
I'm give giving up, oh,
Chorus:
So look what you did to me
Look what you did to me
Look what you did to me autumn
I'm a leaf that's gone falling free
Beneath all the maple trees
In front of this house to the bottom
Outro:
Yeah winter's gone
and spring has come
Love is here can't you see
Like the autumn leaves
Bring me to the spring
F#m B end on an E
Show me how to love someone
