         D                    C1st of October, the summer's over
                 D                    CThe leaves are falling all around my door
                D                    CThe midnight walking, early morning talking
                     D                             CCan't you hear us whispering, walking across your floor

                D                        CWe'll go out rambling all through the brambling

                     D                          CThe rose hips have grown now, the year is in slowdown
                          D                      CYour long hair and long dress, let them fall for me

[Verse 4]
                   D                       CGreat works don't lie there, grind up and dry there
                  D                      CThey wait for impatiently your hands to find
                  D                         CLeaf through the pages, can't you feel the ages
              D                        CRise up like dust now in the sunlight there
          DIn the sunlight
