F# Bm
I'm an autumn girl, flying over London
F# G
With the trees on fire, it looks like home
F# Bm
I'm an autumn girl on the endless search for summer
A D
Cause I need some love to cook my frozen bones
F# G
You needed something to get your teeth into
F#
And in my voodoo kitchen you said
G
"I've got something to show you,
E B
It's a recipe handed down from father to son
A E
For a thousand years, and it goes with those hot salt tears. "
F# Bm
I'm an autumn girl, crying over London
F# A
With a heart on fire but no-one home
F# Bm
I'm an autumn girl on the endless search for summer
A D
Cause I need some love to heat my frozen bones
F# G
Get me on the boil and reduce me
F# G
To a simmering wreck with a slow kiss
E
To the back of my neck
B A
Carve up my heart on a very low flame
E A
Separate my feelings then pour them down the drain
F# G
Close my eyes and sweeten me with lies
F# G
Pierce my skin with a few well-chosen words
E A
Now you can stuff me with whatever you've got handy
F# G A G
And on a cold grey day a cold grey man will do
F# Bm
I'm an autumn girl, flying over London
F# A
With the trees on fire, it looks like home
F# Bm
I'm an autumn girl on the endless search for summer
A D
Cause I need some love to heat my frozen bones
F# G
So give me something to whet my appetite
F# G
And chill my soul with a sudden lack of interest
E B A
Oh, but the winter freezes on and the candle's burned low
E A
Fill me with the hot stuff then say you've got to go
F# G
Take my mind, marinate it in red wine
F# G
Grate my thighs with your chinny chin chin
E A
And I will let you in
F# G A
Oh on a long dark night a long dark man might...
