G/B Am D7 G C G/B C F G/B 6/3 5/0 5/2
I was 21 years when I wrote this song I'm 22 now, but I won't be for long
C D7 Dsus2 D7
Time hurries on
3/0 3/2 G F C D G/B G/B G/F# Em
And the leaves that are green turn to brown And they wither with the
Am7 D7 Dsus2 D7
wind And they crumble in your hand
G/B Am D7 G C G/B C F
(Once my heart) was filled with the love of a girl I held her close, but she faded in the
G/B 5/0 5/2 C 5/3 5/2 D7 Dsus2 D7
night Like a poem I meant to write CHORUS
G/B Am D7 G C G/B C F G/B
I threw a pebble in a brook And watched the ripples run away
5/0 5/3 C D7 Dsus2 D7
And they never made a sound CHORUS
G Am D7 G G/B C G/B 6/3 6/3 5/0 5/2
Hello hello hello hello Goodbye goodbye goodbye goodbye
C D7 Dsus2 D7 G/B F C D7 G/B
That's all there is And the leaves that are green turn to brown
