F F7 Bb Gm F Dm C F C
[Verse]
As FI was a-Dmwalking one Cmorning at ease
A viewing the C7leaves as they Ffell from the trees
All in slow F7motion apBbpearing to Gmbe
Like Fthose that had Dmwithered, they Cfell from the Ftrees
[Verse]
CAnd if Fyou'd seen those Dmtrees just a Cfew days ago
How beautiful and C7green they Fall seemed to grow
But a frost came uF7pon them and Bbwithered them Gmall
And a Fstorm came uDmpon them and Cdown they did Ffall
[Verse]
CWhat's the Flife of a Dmman any Cmore than a leaf
A man has his C7seasons, so Fwhy should we grieve
Although in this F7world, we apBbpear fine and Gmgay
Like a Fleaf we must Dmwither and Csoon fade aFway
[Instrumental]
F Dm C C7 F
F F7 Bb Gm F Dm C F C
[Verse]
CIf you Flook in the Dmchurchyard, it's Cthere you will see
Those that have C7passed like a Fleaf from the tree
When age and afF7fliction uBbpon them did Gmfall
Like a Fleaf they did Dmwither and Cdown they did Bbfall
[Verse]
CWhat's the Flife of a Dmman any Cmore than a leaf
A man has his C7seasons, so Fwhy should we grieve
Although in this F7world, we apBbpear fine and Gmgay
Like a Fleaf we must Dmwither and Csoon fade aBbway
What's the Flife Cof a Fman?
