key: C
Intro:  G

C                D                G
        I walked in my great coat,   down through the days of leaves
C       D                          G
        No before, after, yes, after before
C             D                   G
We were shining our light into the days of blooming wonder
C   D                         G                   D
In the eternal presence,   in the presence of the flame


CHORUS -----------------------------------------
G       D/F#    Em             D/B                C
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?
G       D/F#    Em      D/B         C
Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright?
G       D/F#    Em            D/B                 C                G
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder----- in the flame?

C       D                      G
On and on and on, we kept singing our song
C       D                                       G
Thru Newtonards and Comber, Gransha and the Ballystockart Road
C                          D                                                G
With Spike and Boffyflow, I said I would describe the leaves for Samuel
                                                        & Felicity
C         D                               G                     D
Rich, red, browney, half burnt orange and green


CHORUS -----------------------------------------
G       D/F#    Em             D/B                C
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?
G       D/F#    Em      D/B         C
Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright?
G       D/F#    Em            D/B                 C                G
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder----- in the flame?

Bridge:
Em                       Bm
It's easy to describe the leaves in the Autumn
Em                    Bm
And it's oh so easy in the Spring
Em                 Bm
But down through January and February
C                           D
It's a very different thing
C       D                              G
On and on and on, through the winter of our discontent
C                         D                                     G
When the wind blows up the collar and the ears are frostbitten too
C                         D                                G
I said I could describe the leaves and what it means to you and me
C                             D                 G
You may call my love Sophia, but I call my love philosophy


CHORUS -----------------------------------------
G       D/F#    Em             D/B                C
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder?
G       D/F#    Em      D/B         C
Didn't I come to lift your fiery vision bright?
G       D/F#    Em            D/B                 C                G
Didn't I come to bring you a sense of wonder----- in the flame?
