Misc Originals – Andy Original - Downfall (Guitar)

E                   Emaj7    D         A
   It’s been a while since we talked

E            Emaj7    D        A
   And I know, it’s my fault

E
   At least half way I guess

  Emaj7
I know I shoulda called

              D
But I’ve been sitting here and thinking

A
Staring at a wall

E
What to say to make this hot mess

Emaj7
All turn out okay

D
I don't know

A
No

E                               Emaj7
  Watching the downfall of leaves

D              A
  On a chilly afternoon

    E                     Emaj7
The way they tumbled in sun

D                    A
  Made me think of you

E                        Emaj7
  So I picked up the phone,

D                          A
  looked for the numbers I hadn’t seen in years

   E                                 Emaj7
At least thats how it felt

D                            A
          It’s been really weird

E                            Emaj7
  And as the phone was ringing

D                           A
  I planed our conversation: Hello, how are you

E                       Emaj7
                          I’ll ask about

D                      A
Homework, maybe weather

E                          Emaj7
  When you finally picked up the phone

D                   A
  “Hey man, whats up”

E                     Emaj7
  I forgot the conversation

D                  A
  I’d planed for us

E
  But you came through

Emaj7
  Like you always do,

D                A                  E
  Hey Andrew, do you wanna go for a walk?

E
Yeah, of course.

              Emaj7
   Later that night

                D
   cool october air,

           A                          E
running my nervous fingers through my hair

                Emaj7
   I don’t know why

                D
   but I was surprised

               A                      E
when I saw you pull up under the clear sky

              Emaj7
   Later that night

                D
   cool october air,

           A                          E
running my nervous fingers through my hair

                Emaj7
   I don’t know why

                D
   but I was surprised

               A                      E
when I saw you pull up under the clear sky

E                   Emaj7
  We start walking east

D                 A
  Away from the setting sun

E            Emaj7
  I glance at your sneakers to

D                   A
See which way we’ll go

E                   Emaj7
  We talked for two hours or so

D                         A
  Walking passed puddles, though piles of leaves

E           Emaj7
  The water breaths it’s soothing

D    A
song beside

E       Emaj7
  I ask how you’ve been

D          A
  So do you

E             Emaj7
  You ask how I’ve been praying

D            A
  Same to you

E                   Emaj7
  It’s amazing what you’ve been through

D                  A
  And I guess that goes for me too

E                           Emaj7
  We share our joys and our burdens as we’re walking

     D             A
over leaves, under trees

E                         Emaj7
  But there was one thing that you said

D                      A
  While we were quiet, standing by our

    E                  Emaj7
cars. You paused, then looked me in

    D              A
the eyes and said

E                   Emaj7    D         A
   It’d been a while since we talked

E              Emaj7         D    A
   But you know, it’s not our downfall
