A Faded Summer Love chords by Doris Day

Intro: Em7 Dm7 G7

C                          B7
Leaves come tumbling down 'round my head
C                       A7
Some of them are brown, some are red
D7                G7
Beautiful to see, but reminding me
C          Ab  G   C
Of a faded summer love
C                  B7
Swaying high above in the trees
C                    A7
They were so in love with the breeze
D7                  G7
Now the autumn wind brings to them the end
C          Ab  G   C
Of a faded summer love
Dm           Em               Dm            G7
I'm like the poor leaves that sway with the breeze
                        C
I thought that life was sweet
Dm          Em                Dm            G7
You are the sweet breeze that tried hard to please
D7                   G7
Then swept me off my feet
C                  B7
Summer morning dew turns to frost
C                         A7
Leaves that once were new pay the cost
D7                G7
Beautiful to see, but reminding me
C          Ab  G   C
Of a faded summer love

I thought that life was sweet
Dm          Em                Dm            G7
You are the sweet breeze that tried hard to please

Then swept me off my feet
