Fallen Leaves chords by Porter Wagoner

C                C7   F
Fallen leaves that lie scattered on the ground

  G7                      C
The birds and flowers that were here now can't be found

                   C7  F
All the friends that he once knew are not around

     G7                 C
They are scattered like the leaves upon the ground


                    C7  F
Some folks drift along through life and never thrill

    G7               C
To the feeling that a good deed brings until

                 C7   F
It's too late and they are ready to lie down

   G7                    C
There beneath the leaves that scattered on the ground


                C7    F
Lord let my eyes see every need of every man

    G7               C
Make me stop and always lend a helping hand

                    C7   F
Then when I'm laid beneath that little grassy mound

      G7                    C
There'll be more friends around than leaves upon the ground


                  C7  F
To your grave there's no use taking any gold

  G7                    C
You cannot use it when it's time for hands to fold

                    C7    F
When you leave this earth for a better home someday

     G7                 C
The only thing you'll take is what you gave away
