Autumn Song Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][Em][C][G][D][G]
Sunday [D]morning, she's

[Verse 1]
[Em]
still [Bm]asleep [C]and breathing [G]soft
[Am]Awoken by the [G]kettle whist[C]le[D]
Send [Em]from the [G]distant moss-
hung [Bm]keep [C]to the drowsy [G]croft
[C]A prayer my flower won't
[G]become her [C]thistle[Em][D]

[Verse 2]
As I [Em]train my fin[G]gers to [Em]the steel
[Bm]to bring us [C]luck
And now she's found [D]my weakness
[Em]She's in my [G]heart and in my dream[Bm]s
and [C]in my waking [G]up[D]
[Em]She's in [C]the clay and the [Bm]landscape drawing
[G]on my [D]coffee [G]cup
[D][Em][C][G][D]

[Verse 3]
[G]
Bleary- [D]eyed, the d[Em]awn birds sing[Bm]
their song[C]s o[G]f l[Am]ove
Looking for [G]someone to hold [C]them[D]
[Em]Free from all [G]our [C]aimless[G]
thoughts [Bm]they [C]fly [G]above
[C]Like us just doing [G]as Mother
told [C]them
[Em][D]

[Verse 4]
In [Em]leaving [G]footprints [C]in [Em]the lawn
when the [Bm]dew drops f[C]reeze
While the world [D]keeps spinning
[Em]She's in the [G]keen [C]touch [G]of the frost [Bm]and
the [C]wind that moves [G]the trees[D]
[Em]She's in the smoke [C]from the [G]bonfire burning [C]up the [D]autumn [G]leaves

[Interlude 1]
[D][Em]
[G][C][G][Am][G][C][D][Em][G]
[C][Bm][C][G][C][G][C][Em][D]

[Verse 5]
I [Em]numb my fin[G]gers [C]in the [G]steam,
[Em]watch the dog [Bm]run a[C]way
From safe be[D]hind my window
I [Em]think up [G]rhyme to [C]keep
[Bm]us calm [C]and fill [G]the day
[D]Now she[Em]'s in each vowel [C]and conson[Bm]ant
[C]of every [D]word [G]I say

[Outro 1]
