A(sus2)                   G         C(maj7) Em7/B A(sus2) 
Lend me your ear while I call you a fool. 
         A(sus2)                G         C(maj7)Em7/B A(sus2) 
You were kissed by a witch one night in the wood, 
      A(sus2)                G         C(maj7) Em7/B A(sus2) 
and later insisted your feelings were true. 

 C D A                C D A        E 
       The witch's promise was coming, 
A              A7              G              D 
believing he listened while laughling you flew.

                          - 
       A(sus2)                      G         C(maj7) Em7/B A(sus2) 
Leaves falling red, yellow, brown, all are the same 
A(sus2)                             G         C(maj7) Em7/B A(sus2) 
, and the love you have found lay outside in the rain. 
A(sus2)                             G     C(maj7) Em7/B A(sus2) 
Washed clean by the water but nursing its pain. 

 C D A                C D A        E 
       The witch's promise was coming, 
             A            A7             G          D 
 and you're looking elsewhere for your own selfish gain.

     G               D            A 
Keep looking, keep looking for somewhere to be, 
              G               D            A 
well, you're wasting your time, they're not stupid like he is. 
             G               D            A 
Meanwhile leaves are still falling, you're too blind to see. 

 NO  CHORDS 
You won't find it easy now, 
           C(maj7) Em7/B A(sus2) 
it's only fair. 

A(sus2)                      G              C(maj7) Em7/B A(sus2) 
He was willing to give to you, you didn't care. 
    A(sus2)                      G         C(maj7)Em7/B A(sus2) 
You're waiting for more but you've already had your share. 
    C D A             C D A        E 
       The witch's promise is turning, 
              A          A7         G          D 
so don't you wait up for him, he's going to be late.
