Chords

[Intro] Am [Verse]

Am
The dead leaves of autumn

That cling so desperately Must fly before the cold October winds

Dm                   E
Their simple life is ended

Dm                        Esus4    E7
Must they be born to die again

[Refrain]

   A                G       D
Oh may the light of freedom shine

    Esus4   E7       A
For all the world to see

                     G      D
And peace and joy to all mankind

        Esus4   E7       A
Through all the years to be

             G           F#
For soon the leaves will die

        Bm                  Esus4   E7
And the long hard wind will blow

    A                 G       D
May this world find a resting place

      Esus4    E7     A
Where peaceful waters flow
