Autumn- Ben Rector

This tab works well for me playing and singing by myself, but Ben plays some 
passing chords throughout the song on the piano, so its close but not perfect.

I play this song with an open E sound, so i play the E, A, B, and C#m chords like this:

        E     A     B     C#m     F#m      Dmaj7
e  ||---0-----0-----0------0-------2--------2----------|
B  ||---0-----0-----0------0-------2--------2----------|
G  ||---1-----2-----4------6-------2--------2----------|
D  ||---2-----2-----4------6-------4--------0----------|
A  ||---2-----0-----2------4-------4--------0----------|
E  ||---0-----0-----0------0-------2--------0----------|

Verse 1
     E          A
So I knew a girl once
  F#m                  B
She was the one I adored
     E        A
So I fell in love once
               F#m                        B
With the girl that I mentioned before


Pre-Chorus:
         E                B
And I'm giving up slowly
                 E
Giving up slowly
           A
Giving slowly love
        E                      B
And so I'm giving up slowly

Giving up slowly
                      A
Learning how to love someone


Chorus:
     E
So look what you did to me
     A
Look what you did to me
     C#m                     B
Look what you did to me autumn
        E
I'm a leaf that's gone falling free
     A
Beneath all the maple trees
      C#m                      B
In front of your house to the bottom


Intro x1


Verse 2:
  E                  A
So I watched the leaves fall
 F#m                     B
All of the way to the ground
     E                            A
And I knew that's what love was
    F#m                        B
To die so that it could be found


Pre-Chorus:
              E               B
And they're giving up slowly
                 E
Giving up slowly
             A
Giving slowly now
        E                          B
And so they're giving up slowly
                 E
Giving up slowly
                       A
Learning how to love someone


Chorus:
            E
They say look what you did to me
 A
Look what you did to me
 C#m                            B
Look what you did to me autumn
      E
I'm a leaf that's gone falling free
     A
Beneath all the maple trees
      C#m                           B
In front of this house to the bottom


Bridge:
Dmaj7             A                     E
   Well, winter's chill won't leave until 
        B
I let it lay me down
       Dmaj7                  A
And you can't see the spring 
                          E
Til you're like the leaves 
                  B
Here on the autumn ground

(flute interlude)

Pre-Chorus:
         E            B
And I'm giving up slowly
                 E
Giving up slowly
          A
Giving slowly love
        E              B
And so I'm giving up
                 E
I'm give giving up
                      A
I'm give giving up, oh,

In front of this house to the bottom

       E
Yeah winter's gone
     A
and spring has come 
F#m                            B
Love is here can't you see 
          E
Like the autumn leaves 
           A
Bring me to the spring 
F#m              B               end on an E
Show me how to love someone
