This Autumn

(início)

D            D6         Dm7           Dm6
Old Father time checked, so there'd be no doubt;
Amaj7          F#m       C#m7/5-        F#7
Called on the North wind   to  come on out,
  A              E         D9        B7
Then cupped his hands so proudly to shout,
 D9             E7              D9         A
"La-di-dah  di-dah-di-dum, 'tis autumn!"
  D               D6            Dm7             Dm6
Trees say they're tired, they've born too much fruit;
Amaj7          F#m     C#m7/5-         F#7
Charmed on the wayside, there's no dispute.
A              E          D9           B7
Now shedding leaves, they don't give a hoot --
D9             E7              D9         A
La-di-dah  di-dah-di-dum, 'tis autumn!
(Bridge:)
         Em7           A7      G/B               A7
Then the birds got together to chirp about the weather
D alt  G/B   A7     D6
Mmmm - mmm - mmm - mmm.
      F#m7           B7          F#m7          B7
After makin' their decision, in birdie-like precision,
E7       Fm              B7              E7
Turned about, and made a beeline to the south.
    D           D6         Dm7     Dm6
My holding you close really is no crime --
        Amaj7         F#m     C#m7/5-       F#7
Ask the birds and the trees and old Father Time.
      A       E        D9      B7
It's just to help the mercury climb.
D9             E7              D9         A
La-di-dah  di-dah-di-dum, 'tis autumn.
(Instrumental Interlude - first 2 lines of verse)
A       E        D9      B7
It's just to help the mercury climb.
D9             E7              F7    A
La-di-dah  di-dah-di-dum, 'tis au - tumn.
