D                 A                  G
  The leaves have turned and she has not

        D            A             G
And she tells me she can't let him go

        D            A        G
And she looks to the moon for answers

        D       A            G
And she looks inside and she knows
[Verse]
D      A              G
   She dresses by the window

D       A               G
Finds reflection in the pane

D      A                 G
   She looks towards the winter

        D           A                  G
And her hair falls around her like rain
[Chorus]
F#m                    D
She is sighing with September

F#m                       A
She would like to run and hide

F#m                        D
   She is wrapped up in confusion

F#m                       D
   She unfolds like paper dolls

                        A
But she's flying as she falls
[Verse]
D                 A                 G
   The birds have gone and she has not,

D           A                   G
But she follows the arc of their flight

        D            A                 G
And the softness has gone from the daylight

        D            A                 G
And the shadows have grown into night
[Chorus]
F#m                    D
She is sighing with September

F#m                       A
She would like to run and hide

F#m                        D
   She is wrapped up in confusion

F#m                       D
   She unfolds like paper dolls

                        A
But she's flying as she falls
[Verse]
D           A           G
  Soon will come cool October

        D         A              G
It will rise all around her like fire

        D           A            G
And she gathers her courage like harvest

        D           A        G
And she gathers her thoughts and desires
[Chorus]
F#m                    D
She is sighing with September

F#m                       A
She would like to run and hide

F#m                        D
   She is wrapped up in confusion

F#m                       D
   She unfolds like paper dolls

                        A
But she's flying as she falls
[Outro]
D            G
She will not run and hide

D                G
She will take it all in stride

D         A  G
And she will

D     A  G
She will

D     A N.C.
She will be flying as she falls
[end] G G A D
