Am        D            Em           Am
Sit by my side come as close as the air,
          D         Bm
sharin' a memory of grey
    Em           C
And wander in my words,
    D               Em              Am   D
and dream about the pictures that I play,
   G
of changes 

Am              D           Em         Am
Green leaves of summer turn red in the fall,
                D           Bm
to brown and to yellow they fade
    Em                C
And then they have to die,
D                  Em            Am   D
trapped within the circle time parade,
   G
of changes

Am         D          Em          Am
Moments of magic will glow in the night,
                 D          Bm
all fears of the forest are gone
    Em               C
For when the morning breaks,
        D             Em              Am   D
they're swept away by golden drops of dawn,
   G
of changes 

Am            D         Em       Am
Passions will part to a warm melody,
              D              Bm
as fires will sometimes turn cold
     Em            C
Like petals in the wind,
      D              Em                Am    D
we're puppets to the silver strings of souls,
   G

     Am            D             Em              Am
Your tears will be trembling now we're somewhere else,
                D            Bm
one last cup of wine we will pour
     Em                C
I'll kiss you one more time,
    D                Em            Am   D
and leave you on the rolling river shore,
   G
