In the fall,
dim
We circle through the leaves
A Maj 7
And talk about the little ones.
dim
And we smile, but never say too much.
A Maj 7
The moment always vanishing.
7
One by one the neighbors' lights come on.
dim Maj 7
Our October day is almost gone.
(Chorus)
I know the border lines we drew between us
Keep the weapons down,
Keep the wounded safe;
I know our antebellum innocence
Was never meant to see the light of our armistice day.
In the spring,
dim
We climbed the rolling hills
A Maj 7
And talked about our budding plans.
And we smiled,
dim
Our faces like a mirror
A Maj 7
Showing us our secret sides.
But then the fights...
The sharp words splintering the night,
How I couldn't be what you'd need...
But oh how I could make you bleed...
(Repeat chorus chords)
I know the border lines we drew between us
Keep the weapons down,
Keep the wounded safe;
I know our antebellum innocence
Was never meant to see the light of our armistice.
(Bridge)
But how much would I give to have it back again?
How much did we lose
Maj 7
To live this way?
(Counter Melody)
You'll go home...I'll stay here
Seasons keep on march-ing
I'll stay here...you'll go home
With only strangers watch-ing
(Counter melody continues, but chords are replaced with chorus chords.)
Ending chords are just a bunch of A chords, ends on an E.
