Key: C

  3  4   6     7    7   7 -6 -9
When au-tumn sings her lul-a-by
-6   -6     6     8   6   6
And green leaves turn to gold
-5   5 -4 -5   5   6    7  -7* -8
Then I re-mem-ber last Sep-tem-ber
-9   8  7  -8   -7   6
You and I said good-bye
 3*  -3   4*   6 -7*  -7   7* -7  6    5
Whis-per-ing that we would be re-turn-ing
-3   7   7*   -5* -4  3*
When au-tumn comes a-gain

 3  4    6    7    7   7     -6   -9
Now au-tumn roams the hills once more
-6  -6   6   8   6    6
But you for-got your vow
-5   5   -4-5  5  6     7 -7* -8 -9  8  7 
And here am I, a-lone with on-ly mem-o-ries
-7*-7  7*  -7  6  5  -3
On-ly lone-ly mem-o-ries, 
7   7*  -5*-4  3*  3*  4
Au-tumn mem-o-ries of you

-3*-4 -3*  -4    6     7*  -8  -8
Love, when the leaves are turn-ing
-7 7  7* 6  -4   5*-5 -5   4  -3*   -4
I get a hun-gry yearn-ing for your arms

5*-5   5* -5   7   -8 -9 -9 -9
Love, when a heart is so so-ber
8  -7*  -8    7    -5 5* -7*   -5*  -7   7
It shad-ows bright Oc-to-ber's gold-en charms

 3    4   6    7  7    7   -6 -9
The flam-ing moon re-minds me of
-6    -6   6  8    6  -5*  6    10
The night of love that we once knew
 -9   9 -8  -9  8  -5* 6  -7*
Each ti-ny star is but a pray’r
-7    7*   -7    6  5  -3
That when it's fall a-gain, 
 7    7*  -5* -4  3*
love will call a-gain
 3    -5    5 3*  -6 -5* -3  7
And you'll be be-side me to make
-6 -4  -4    -7*   7*   -9
My au-tumn dreams come true

-3*-4 -3*  -4    6     7*  -8  -8
Love, when the leaves are turn-ing
-7 7  7* 6  -4   5*-5 -5   4  -3*   -4
I get a hun-gry yearn-ing for your arms

5*-5   5* -5   7   -8 -9 -9 -9
Love, when a heart is so so-ber
8  -7*  -8    7    -5 5* -7*   -5*  -7   7
It shad-ows bright Oc-to-ber's gold-en charms

 3    4   6    7  7    7   -6 -9
The flam-ing moon re-minds me of
