 -  -  -  x2
 We were 17  and on our  own
 When we hit  the gas for the great unknown
 I was named  for a boy, she was named  for the fall
 And nothing  much else really mattered  at all
 I knew  what happened on her kitchen floor
 And she knew  what it meant when I wrote on the door
Secrets  spilled into that dark
 And everyone  was a piece of my heart
 It’s a lullaby
 It’s a beautiful  life
 And it sings  me to sleep most every  night
 So I hold  it close
 And I hide  it away
That’s  how I keep it from going  astray
Love  doesn’t need a rhyme or a reason to be
   -  - /B-  x2 (listen for timing for change btw  to )
 This is the story of Autumn and me.
 We grew  up fast in a few  short years
 And we littered  the path with the tracks  of our tears
 But we carved  our names in the proverbial  wall
 And nothing  much else really matters  at all
 We earned  every line in our 25 years
 We cried  over boys and we laughed over beers
 I wouldn’t  trade the girl for a song
She  lets me know right where I belong
 It’s a lullaby
 It’s a beautiful  life
 And it sings  me to sleep most every  night
 So I hold  it close
 And I hide  it away
That’s  how I keep it from going  astray
Love  doesn’t need a rhyme or a reason to be
   -  -  -  x2
 This is the story of Autumn and me.
Rooftop  dancing in the summer heat
New  car crash on a one way street
Strangers  moving up to the fourth floor
Strange,  now nobody knows me more

 It’s a lullaby
 It’s a beautiful  life
 And it sings  me to sleep most every  night

 It’s a lullaby
 It’s a beautiful  life
