Bm F#m
Good God, is it November?
Em Bm
The leaves burn auburn red
G D
The Asheville skies and timber
F#
Are holding on to it
Bm F#m
But I cannot remember
Em Bm
That fleeting hopeful song
G D
That rose of our September
F#
My word, what have we done?
G E
I'd love nothing more than to cover my face
A F# Bm
Forget who I am and get out of this place
G D
Pretend to be somebody other than me
F#
And go on living that way
Bm A D G
Till all the dreams that I had in mind
Bm A D G
Come back to me by next year this time
A F# Bm
Tell me whatever became of what I left behind
During Solo : Bm F#m Em Bm G D F#
Bm F#m
Could hope have sprung eternal
Em Bm
On darkened, dreary roads?
G D
The heart that beats nocturnal
F#
Knows not where it goes
Bm F#m
We listen for the signal
Em Bm
To raise the dirt again
G D
Our livelihood is equal
F#
To the air that breathes us in
G E
I'd welcome you home just to turn you away
A F# Bm
Shuffle the cards by the light of the day
G D
Pretend that the worst of it got left behind
F#
And go on living that way
Bm A D G
Till all the dreams we left in our wake
Bm A D G
Come back to me as the joy we forsake
A F# Bm
Tell me whatever is burning the fires we made
