Autumn Of My Life
Bobby Golsboro

Intro C G Am Em F G G7

C          Am    F    C
In the spring of my life she came to me
              Em   Am    Dm  G G7
she brought sunshine where winter winds had blown
    C        Em     F      C   E
Then I took her for my wife in the spring of my life
  Am       F  C  G     C   E7sus4 A
and she brought me  a joy I`d never known


     D       Bm    G      D
And the years they went by in the spring of my life
       F#m   Bm     D     Em   A
and in summer   she blessed me  with a child
A7  D      F#m     G      D  F#
Love continued to grow in the summer of my life
    Bm  D    G  A    D     F G
and in every morning sun  I saw her smile

      C      Am   F      C
But in the autumn of my years I noticed the tears
      Em     Am  C   Dm     F G
and I knew  that our life  was in the past
     C      Em   F        C  E
Though I tried to pretend I knew it was the end
    Am   C    F  G   C      G A
for the autumn  of my life  had come at last


  D        Bm    G    D
Now what what do you say to a child of ten
            F#m   Bm  Em  A A7
how do you tell him his daddy`s goin` away
   D       F#m       G      D  F#
Do I tell him that I  reached the autumn of my life
     Bm  Bm7   G   A   D      F G
and that he`ll  understand  some winter`s day


   C       Am     F      C
Now a rose can`t be found on a snow covered ground
          Am  C     Dm     G G7
and the sun cannot shine  through cloudy skies
    C     Em     F         C E
But I`m richer you see for the years she gave to me
    Am   C    F   G   C  Am Am7 C
and I`m content  in the autumn of my life
