[G][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Autumn
air [C]it carries me there
[G]Less than an hour to [C]go
[G]Six hundred [C]miles an hour
And still [Em]it feels so sl[D]ow
[G]I'm trying to get [C]back to Burlington
To [G]a square in the center [C]of town
[G]To a spot on a wooden [C]table
Where [Em]her feet didn't
reach the [D]ground
And when [G]she kisses me it
[D]tasted [C]like cinnamon
And [G]her skin smells of cider and [C]rose
And when she [G]looked at me
we both [C]got quiet
And my heart beats so [Em]hard
we were in so [D]close
[Em]Once for such a beautiful [D]while
that still makes me smile
[G]

[Verse 2]
And she called me her ugly [C]American
And I would [G]call her my Canadian [C]flower
And I [G]don't think that we'll
ever [C]get there again
We had such [Em]power[D]
And she [G]would call me her ugly [C]American
And I'll re[G]member my [C]Canadian rose
Espe[G]cially when the fall
comes [C]to Burlington

[Verse 3]
We were in so close
[Em]And every single hope and dream I
could ever [D]conjure up
Passionately springs in me
and things are possible
Plausible and perfectly
[G]both of ours forever after
And every day,
[D]at [C]lea[G]st it seemed that way
Once for a beautiful while that still
[D]makes me smile

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][C][G][C][G]

[Verse 4]
[G]I finally made [D]it [C]this town
looks rearranged
[G]I don't know these people any[C]more
But in the [G]best ways not much
[C]else has changed
From [Em]the way it was be[D]fore
[G]And at least they still have
this cer[C]tain table
Where I [G]once carved a particular [C]name
I run my fin[G]ger through
the weathered [C]carving
And I al[Em]most can feel [D]the same
And my [G]mouth it almost
[D]tastes just like cin[C]namon
As [G]I ponder what my [D]pilgrim[C]age means
And [G]I try to figure out [D]where
[C]Vancouver is from here
And [Em]I listen [D]to the leaves
If [Em]only for a beauti[D]ful while
that still makes me [G]smile

[Verse 5]
And she [G]called me her [C]ugly American
And I would [G]call her my [C]Canadian flower
And I don't [G]think that we'll
ever [C]get there again
We had such [Em]power[D]
And she would [G]call me her ugly [C]American
And I'll re[G]member my [C]Canadian rose
Espe[G]cially when the fall
comes [C]to Burlington
