**These are the root chords for the song.  There are added fingerpicking and 
walking notes around these chords, but this represents the structure of the song.  Have fun!**

[A]If ever theres a reason to be swept up in the season 
of the [E]fallen leaves
And [A]if the days grew shorter 
And the darkness drew its order 
from the [E]autumn grey

Id [D]rather sit this [Dm]out and sleep the [A]day away instead
My [D]weary eyes a [Dm]bit too slow in[A]deed [A7]
Id [D]rather sit this [Dm]out and sleep the 
[A]day A[A add G#]way in[A add F#]stead [A add E]
To [B7]worry about the emptiness that [E7]comes

(Instrumental interlude  [A], [A7], [D], [Dm], [A], [A7], [D], [Dm], [A])

[A]If ever theres a need to watch the afternoon just roll into
 the [E]evening sky
find [A]comfort in the finer things that keep you close that keep you safe
With[E]in this room


when it [D]comes [A]down to [E]me
and I [D]grit [A]my [E]teeth 
and I [D]start [A]to [E]stall
when it [D]comes [A]down to [E]me

[A]If ever theres a reason to be swept up in the season 
of the [E]fallen leaves
And [A]if the days grew shorter 
And the darkness drew its order 
from the [E]autumn grey

Id [D]rather sit this [Dm]out and sleep the [A]day away instead
My [D]weary eyes a [Dm]bit too slow in[A]deed [A7]
Id [D]rather sit this [Dm]out and sleep the [A]day a[A add G#]way in[A add F#]stead [A add E]
To [B7]worry about the emptiness that [E7]comes
To [B7]worry about the emptiness that [E7]comes

(Instrumental interlude  [A], [A7], [D], [Dm], [A], [A7], [D], [Dm], [A]
