Lyrics

The sum mer sun is fad ing as the (C)year grows old

and (F)dark er days are draw ap ing (C)near.

The win ter winds will be much (Csus2)cold er

now you’re not (Dm)here.

I watch the birds fly south a cross the (C)au tumn sky

and (F)one by one they dis ap pear.

(C)near.

I wish that I was fly ing (Csus2)with them

now you’re not (Dm)here.

(Dm)here.

Like the (F)sun through the trees you came to love me.

Like a (F)leaf on a breeze you blew a way.

Through au tumn’s gold en gown we used to (C)kick our way,

you al (F)ways loved this (F)time of year.

Those fall en leaves lie un dis turbed now

’cause you’re not here,

’cause you’re not (C)here,

’cause you’re not here.

’cause you’re not (C)here,

’cause you’re not here.

(Dm)Ul (Fsus4)la.

Like the (F)sun through the trees you came to love me.

Like a (F)leaf on a breeze you blew a way.

Through au tumn’s gold en gown we used to (C)kick our way,

you al (F)ways loved this (F)time of year.

Those fall en leaves lie un dis turbed now,

’cause you’re not here,

’cause you’re not (C)here,

’cause you’re not here.
