Tips:
*When picking the Fadd9, I just use my thumb on the 6th string and my index, middle &
pinky fingers for the
other 3 notes.
*This also sounds pretty good when strummed - or alternating between picking (intro
pattern) and strumming.
*If strumming the verse you can get away with just a regular F (133211)
*Obviously the chords are relative to the capo (the album recording is in G)

C Fadd9 C Fadd9
"It's a cold day for September", was all I thought to say
C Fadd9 G Fadd9 G
When I saw you on the street the other day.
C Fadd9 C Fadd9
I knew something changed between us, all the talk we made was small
C Fadd9 C Fadd9 G
But what do you say to someone when they've heard you say it all?
Am G Fadd9 G
It's an awkward conversation in a most peculiar way
F C G N.C
How did we get from saying "I love you" to "I'll see you around someday"?
REPEAT INTRO
C Fadd9 C Fadd9
It seemed like only days ago we had so much to say
C Fadd9 G C Fadd9 G
Did we take it all for granted, did it all get thrown away?
C Fadd9 C Fadd9
"It calls for rain this afternoon", you finally replied
C Fadd9 C Fadd9 G
And there was such a stuttering silence that I felt my mouth go dry
Am G F G
So we'll just talk about the weather 'cause there's not much more to say
F C G C
How did we get from saying "I love you" to "I'll see you around someday"?
F C G N.C
How did we get from saying "I love you" to "I'll see you around someday"?
REPEAT INTRO
F C G C
Has all the ice been broken? All our surfaces been scratched
F C G C
Have all the words been spoken? Have we finally met our match?
G Am G F G
'cause It's an awkward conversation in a most peculiar way
F C G C
How did we get from saying "I love you" to "I'll see you around someday"?
F C G C
How did we get from saying "I love you" to "I'll see you around someday"?
F C G N.C
How did we get from saying "I love you" to "I'll see you around someday"?
REPEAT INTRO x 2
