Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Key: G

Verse 1:
G                              C
In this autumn town where the leaves can fall
    G                     C
On either side of the garden wall
G                      C                D
We laugh all night to keep the embers glowin'
G                                  C
Some are leapin' free from their moving cars
G                               C
Stackin' stones 'round their broken hearts
G                 C                     D
Waving down any wind that might come blowin'

Verse 2:
G                          C
Mice move out when the field is cut
G                       C
Serpents curl when the sun comes up
G               C                    D
Songbirds only end up where they're goin'
G                   C
Some get rain and some get snow
G                    C
Some want love and some want gold
G               D               C
I just want to see you in the mornin'

Hook:
G                       C
Dogs lay down in the evenin' heat
G                          C
Fish do worse when they leave the sea
G                C                   D
Songbirds only end up where they're goin'

Verse 3:
G                               C
In this autumn town where the lights can change
G                              C
Some get mercy and some get blame
G                         C                D
Some get lost when they feel the river flowin'
G                             C
It's all holy smoke and the flame dies fast
G                            C
We hold our hats while the days fly past
G                     C                    D
Cold wind comes and we wave but it keeps goin'

Hook 2:
G                        C
Fathers, Sons and Holy Ghosts
G                      C
All come back or they all come close
G                C                  D
Songbirds only end up where they're going

Verse 4:
G                  C
Some get hard and some go home
G                    C
Some want flesh and some want bone
G              D               C
I just want to see you in the mornin'

Outro:
G                     D              C            G
Yeah, I just want to see you in the mornin
