No capo
Intro D/G/D/G/A

  D
I stood out on the road
      G                  D
and I watched as you were leaving.
       G                 D          A
The leaves were dancing oranges and reds
          D                        G           D
and they circled all around me like confetti on fire.
            G              D            A
They were nothing when compared to the burning in my head.
  Bm              G
I was lost, I was gone,
        D  A     G
I was falling for you.

        D
That summer came and went.
        G             D
You were working for my family,
        G                 D            A
one more job and then your classes would begin.
            D                         G                   D
And you promised we'd be quiet, and we hid behind the garden.
          G              D                  A
I walked out more than a woman than I walked in.
      Bm             G
And I was lost, I was gone,
        D       A
I was falling.
        Bm      G
I was lost, I was gone,
        D    A     G    D
I was falling for you.

A Bm
I went down to the church,
(A) G
I offered my confession.
(A) D
I swore I'd never do it again,
(A) Bm
I swore I learned my lesson.

      Bm                             A
Oh, but every year when the leaves appear
       G                       A
your memory comes sweet and clear.
   D
I never will forget you
         A                             Gm
and I never did regret you.


        Bm          G         D      A
I was lost, I was gone, I was falling.
        Bm          G         D      A
I was lost, I was gone, I was falling.


 D
I stood out on the road
        G                     D
and I watched as you were leaving.
     G                 D                    A
The leaves were dancing oranges and reds
