E5 E5 E5  2x

E5      E5 E5        E5     E5
Leaves were  falling, down like embers, 
                                       A5
In colors red and gold, they set us on fire 
                  E5
Burning just like moonbeams in our eyes. 

B5                 B5       E5                         A5
Somebody said they saw me, swinging the world by the tail 
                E5         E5 E5   A5           E5     E5 E5
Bouncing over a white cloud,        killing the blues. 

E5   E5 E5      E5 E5
Now I'm   guilty of    something... 

I hope you never do 
                 A5
Because there is nothing 
                           E5            E5 E5
Any sadder than losing yourself in love.
 
B5                 B5       E5                         A5
Somebody said they saw me, swinging the world by the tail 
                E5         E5 E5   A5           E5     E5 E5
Bouncing over a white cloud,        killing the blues. 

E5 A5 E5  B5 B5 E5 A5 E5 E5 E5  A5 E5  E5 E5

  E5        E5 E5     E5   E5
Before you ask   me... just to leave you 

To run out on my own 
               A5
And get what I need to 
               E5                         E5 E5
You want me to find what I've already had.

B5                 B5       E5                         A5
Somebody said they saw me, swinging the world by the tail 
                E5         E5 E5   A5             E5     E5 E5
Bouncing over a white cloud,        killing the blues. 

B5                 B5             E5                         A5
Somebody said they saw me, I was swinging the world by the tail 
                E5         E5 E5   A5           E5     E5 E5
Bouncing over a white cloud,        killing the blues.
