Josh Ritter - Leaves and kings

^CI met you at a ^Amparty ^Cor on a crowded ^Amstreet ^Ca silent singula^Amrity ^Fwhen glances chanced to ^Gmeet ^CYou looked into my gla^Amsses ^Csaid you'd seen a g^Amhost ^Ctried my best to make^Am you smile ^Fas we calypsoed ^Gclose

^CI had been to Cl^Ameveland ^CYou had been to j^Amail ^CYou seemed to be r^Amecovering ^Fbut I felt a little ^Gpale

^COur house it was on s^Ameventeenth ^Cabove the hardware ^Amstore ^Cthere we lived with se^Amven cats ^Fall named for in sev^Gen dwarves

^Fbut like leaves and k^Gings ^Fall things must f^Call ^Fno diamond ring is go^Gnna ^Fcut through it a^Cll

^Cyou were working as a g^Amraverobber ^Cyou could do your job at n^Amight ^CI was living hand to m^Amouth ^Fjust looking for a ^Gfight

^Cthe reason why we ^Amparted ^Cit ain't that hard to ^Amfind ^CI was always bus^Amy ^Fand you never had the ^Gtime

^Cwell the reason why we ^Amparted ^Cit ain't that hard to ^Amsee ^Cbut I was never s^Amure ^Fif I left you or you left^G me

^Fbut like leaves and ^Gkings ^Fall things must f^Call ^Fno diamond ring is ^Ggonna ^Fcut through it a^Cll

^Cand when it was all ^Amover ^CI lost myself in ^Amwork ^Cyou got married to a ^Amlawyer ^Fpainting murals in new ^Gyork

^Cand though it seems a millio^Amn miles ago ^Csince I saw the l^Amight ^Cthe hours flowed by n^Amervously ^Flike warships in the ^Gnight

^CMany times I've been ^Amcorrupted ^Cbut I've never been in^Am love ^Cand I began to rea^Amlize ^Fthat that's just where I ^Gwas

^Cso I packed up my p^Amossessions ^Cand caught an eastbound ^Amtrain ^Cmet you in oh^Amio ^Fsleeping in the ra^Gin

^Fbut like leaves and ^Gkings ^Fall things must f^Call ^Fno diamond ring is ^Ggonna ^Fcut through it a^Cll

^Cso now we're going back a^Amgain ^Cto start where we ^Ambegan ^Cwith rules and regu^Amlations ^Fbut no real kinda p^Glan

^CI learned my lesson ^Amwell ^Cwith no mistakes at a^Amll ^Conce you find yourself true ^Amlove ^Fyou just keep holding ^Gon

^Flike leaves and king^Gs ^Fall things must f^Call ^Fno diamond ring is ^Ggonna ^Fcut through it a^Cll ^Fbut now out of t^Ghe dark ^Fout of the b^Glue ^Flike leaves and k^Gings ^FI've fallen in love with yo^Cu
