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
