The Fureys - The first leaves of autumn

^CAs the daylight turns to starlight And the ^Fseasons turn to ^Gchange I ^Cget the same old answers But the ^Fquestion still rem^Gains We shared a brief but magic ^Fsong By the ^Gfirst leaves of ^Fautumn You were ^Cgone

^CNot until the ^Frain had ^Gtouched my ^Cface Not until the ^Ffirst leaves ^Gfell from ^Cspace Not until that ^Fmoment ^Gdid I ^Amsee I ^Cnever rea^Flised what you ^G7meant ^Gto ^Cme

^CFrom the days you filled with ^Fsunlight To the laughter in you ^Geyes To the ^Cmaking and the ^Fbreaking Of the day you said goo^Gdbye We shared a brief but magic ^Fsong By the ^Gfirst leaves of ^Fautumn You were ^Cgone

^CNot until the ^Fhearts de^Gfence is ^Cdown Not until some ^Fold come ^Gall ye comes ^Cround Not until that ^Fmoment ^Gdid I ^Amsee ^CNever rea^Flised what you ^G7meant ^Gto ^Cme

^CNot until the ^Frain had ^Gtouched my ^Cface Not until the ^Ffirst leaves ^Gfell from ^Cspace Not until that ^Fmoment ^Gdid I ^Amsee I ^Cnever rea^Flised what you ^G7meant ^Gto ^Amme I ^Cnever rea^Flised what you ^G7meant ^Gto ^Cme
